Lovely panoramic painting Paul. The black faces of the sheep suggest the Swaledale area

Lovely picture Paul, and I like the way you have captured the undulating hills too. Like the barn roof too!

A panoramic Watercolour scene partly imagined of spring in the Dales looking across the valley up to the higher moors. I added the sheep using a little body colour and adjusted the background buildings to develop this scene .
