Irish wall

From the previous view, I decided to take a nearby photo I had taken and zoom in on the stonewall. Stonewalls are so typical of the West of Ireland, but not so much on the Beara peninsula, which is much more wild than other parts of the country. Yet, this place had a big long stone wall with fencing on top! 

And look at the little sheep in the fields on the side of the hill! I did them with some acrylic marker (whichever wasn't bleeding), and then added a little brown grey head and a bluer grey shadow. They're perfect! I could have achieved them by lifting pigment from the green grass, but the paper I'm using isn't watercolour paper, so it was best to add rather than subtract.
