Well I finally managed the french-knot sheep, but then I decided I needed a tree in the foreground.
An indefinite blob-tree was too blobby for something in the foreground, so it had to have branches. The first two got unpicked and this is what we're left with. I think it works OK now! The line of sea in the distance was a late addition as well. The problems all come from thinking too much...
Now I just need to leave it alone and find a frame...
I might have been tempted to add a 'french knot whippet X' chasing the sheep!
ReplyDeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteYou have achieved a perfect scene.
ReplyDeleteLovely! And I like how you've done the edge too, I keep trying to work out how to do that and failing at the moment.
ReplyDeleteKnowing when to stop is an art in itself, but this looks just right.
ReplyDeleteLovely, I just want to run across to that tree & have a sit down & a think!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work!
