Stoneleigh Country and Livestock Show

As artist-in-residence at the show I had a lovely base in Barn 7 and then went out and about drawing. The showery weather made it impractical to work on a large scale.  Instead I chose some handmade Indian paper that has flecks of plant material, including straw and sacking, clearly visible.

I became totally absorbed by the sheep. . . . . and their relationships with each other and their handlers when being shown in the ring.
