Lambkin

I was on the look out for an Easter Lamb to paint and was fortunate enough to find this little chap, called Lampkin. Gemma, his owner, described him as a determined soul, always the first of the line at feeding time and always full of play, chasing her children around their garden. This painting was based on photo of one sunset moment in their garden, where the sun’s light heightened all the textures and colours of Lamkin’s face and coat, capturing something tender and slightly comical in his expression.
