Island Sheep Eat

English:
I took a reference photo on the morning of June 28, 2005 of my island neighbors, three sheep on Heimaey Island in the Bjarneyjar archipelago in Breiðafjörður Bay, West Iceland. It was a solo human five weeks stay. In April 2019, I painted them. 16" x 12" (w x h), Daniel Smith, Schmincke Horadam, and Winsor & Newton watercolors, selected for light fastness and permanence, and Prismacolor waterproof fade proof archival ink on 140 lb.
