My first painting of 2010, and maybe the most detailed one I've ever done. My goal for this year is to focus less on quantity, and more on detail, something which a lot of my previous paintings lacked.

I don't know what it is about sheep that's a bit frightening, maybe it's that their eyes have a slightly dead look about them? And maybe it's just me. Gotta love 'em though, this is my second painting using sheep, and I wanted to use them again in an even more surrealistic way, something both slightly disturbing and comical.

Lots of symbolism here, and those that know me well will probably be able to figure some of it out.
