About this artwork
In the Caribbean island of Antigua where she lives, the artist observes that the sheep & goats are practically identical: the only difference is that the tails of the former are down whereas the tails of the latter are up. This is also indicated by the title, which is also a play on words, a literary technique much beloved by the artist who is also a great believer in humour.
Very few sheep or goats are fenced - the flocks tend to wander all over… the place but still managed by a shepherd or goatherd. Traffic can be held up for sometime when they cross a road!
Again, the artist revels in the joy of nature that surrounds her & the flora & fauna that comprise it. The painting is a happy, tranquil representation of island life.
