Sheepdog Herds While Alpacas Protect The Sheep by Joan Stratton - An abstract piece where the alpacas watch over the sheep herd and protect them from wild dogs, foxes and other pests but here they are being herded by the sheepdog at my sister's family farm in North East, Country Victoria, Australia.

I have added a wool look background to represent the final farmed product from the sheep and alpacas. They used to say that Australia rode on the sheep's back, maybe not so much today unless the tourists are visiting sheep farms or stations :)

I see myself as a mixed media artist, I love every medium and they all...
