Leicester Longwool, Part 2, Dreadlocks













These guys are adorable in full dreadlock style.

Leicester Longwool, Part 1, The Lambs










I visited my friends' farm to photograph their new lambs. The mom's wool is so long around her face that she needed to use a scrunchy so she could see her lambs. One of her triplets is with a new mom on another farm.

A Couple Plein Air Paintings










The top is oil on cradled board 8" x 10" of a view on the Blue Ridge Parkway near Explorer Park when the late afternoon sun was lighting up the tops of the orange grass. The second, oil on uncradled board, 9" x 12"  is of the late afternoon sun shining on the banks of Carvin's Cove during a time of low water.
