The verse this month is:
May brings flocks of pretty lambs
Skipping by their fleecy dams
Surprising, there is no constraints this time. So we can interpret this anyway we wish.
For 13 years I worked for a company that owned historical sites and I worked in a few of them. One of them in the spring taught visitors all the processes of taking a fleece and making it into a shawl back in the 18th century. And yes, I can demonstrate all of it except for the shearing.
This line reminded me of that so I drew sheep being very happy after they were sheared. They really do skip a bit. They hate being sheared but love how better they feel once they get it cut. Thus you see the sheep shear and some of the fleece.
As usual I had no stamps or dies suitable for this so I drew all of this.
I used an old set of Spectracolor pencils that belonged to my late father-in-law. My printer also refuses to print black ink so I wrote the verse myself.
I actually found this more challenging without any constraints!
Until next time....
