Description
Thank you for your visit and many thanks for your support of my last pic, I truly appreciate it my friends. I hope you like this one.
The dog is a Border Collie and one of a few I am painting for a dog pack, I hope to upload to my store. I have been painting them for a few weeks now on and off, and still have a few to paint, it is a very exacting task and it takes me a long time. :o)I painted the lamb a while ago. The whole scene was painted using wacom intuos3 tablet and pen in CS4.
Story -
The snows came early to the Yorkshire hills and lambing had begun. The border collie had been hard at work all day helping his master herd the sheep with their lambs down to the lower pastures.
The border collie is one of the most hard working and intelligent of dogs and this particular dog knew there was still not all the flock there, so he went off on his own in pursuit of any stray lambs. The good dog found one little lamb who was keeping warm near a tree and under a blanket of snow. The dog knew he had to stay with the lamb until his master whistled him, and when he did the dog barked, and the farmer knew instinctively that was a bark of alarm, so he picked up his lamp and made his way through the snow toward the trusty loyal sheep dog.
There was a happy ending and the farmer's wife took the lamb into her farm kitchen to warm him near the range, and gave him a bottle feed, and of course the dog joined them too.
Aren't dogs the most amazing creatures?
Happy Christmas guys, keep safe, hugs Jane xx

Fantastic work on this Jane. I love the story you wrote as well. This border collie reminds me of Jasmine. I know she isn't a border collie, but i guess it is the coloring she looks a lot like this. Your work as always is marvelous.
