I have to say that when I first saw the screen shot for this week's tutorial I thought, No Way! The piece looked too busy and too complicated. After watching Karen Rice's tutorial, I was excited to give it a try.
At first, I was worried about the sheep. I didn't think I could sketch them and make them look even slightly realistic. If I may say, they turned out pretty good! Looks like they're ready to be sheared. I hope "ewe" like them.
Enjoy!

yep, they turned out very cool I know I had the same thoughts, I love that your blooms are actually blooming on your tree branches too. ( mine was a little too abstract to suit me when I was done with it) It's always fun to see how everyone else is reacting to seeing the same thing.

I had the same thoughts when first seeing the challenge. The artist has a great way of teaching. You are one good student. This sketching and painting is wonderful. Like how your blossoms have some structure and your sheep are amazing. Again, so happy you joined us this week. Fav'd

I am so impressed with your painting - you have done such a great job with this challenge. Well done! I knew if everyone gave themselves a chance they would be able to do this easily, and you have proved to me that is true, thank you.
