I don't often paint landscapes but the portrait commissions have been thin on the ground this year. Removed from my highly representational style this tends towards impressionistic. If the shapes and perspective are believable, the viewer's imagination will fill in the missing details. It would be truly laborious to depict each sheep.
Increasingly, painting with a knife using strong, often unmixed colours, is reducing my desire to paint with brushes and more 'natural' shades. Maybe my eyesight is degenerating.

I love this! As a sometimes relaxation painter I recognise the detail and extreme difficulty of depicting the sheep. Landscapes suit you Lyndsay as does the knife. Keep it up.
I like that ,well done.
Wonderful painting, Lindsay!
Lindsay, I agree with Anon#1, "Landscapes do suit you as does the knife. I like this very much.
