This is a drawing of three sheep. The drawing shows three sheep, two lying down and one standing. Fine lines and a palette of soft grays and oranges depict the texture of the sheep’s wool. The background is minimal, highlighting the sheep. The use of black lines against the colored paper adds depth to the composition.
