The beautiful patchwork Irish landscape is criss-crossed with hedgerows and dotted with sheep. We can't help but fall in love with all the shades of green and those sweet sheep faces! Here's another of my new pieces, a carved linoleum relief print. I'm using a new ink (Caligo) that is oil-based but washes up with soap and water; it takes a couple of days to dry, but then it is waterproof and easy to paint on with my watercolors and paint pens. This is the view from the park in Listowel.
 I had to bring home some Irish sheep in my suitcase!! This sweater has been my warm new best friend -- and you know I couldn't resist the scarf! I got it in green for St. Patrick's Day! |  Amy's feeling the sheep love, too! Here's the latest addition to the gallery window, Seamus O'Sheepster (also known as the Heap Sheep!) |
Need more sheep??
An Irish priest lost his favorite Bible while he was walking home from the pub one night. Three weeks later, a sheep walked up to him carrying the Bible in its mouth. The priest couldn't believe his eyes. He took the precious book out of the sheep's mouth, raised his eyes heavenward and exclaimed, "It's a miracle!" "Not really," said the sheep. "Your name is written inside the cover."
Not baaaahd enough for you?
An Irishman goes to the movies sits down next to a sheep eating popcorn. "Are you a sheep?" asked the man, surprised. "Yes." "What are you doing at the movies?" The sheep replied, "Well, I liked the book."
