The story behind the work: Remember the classic scene on I Love Lucy where Lucy crams chocolates into her mouth in a desperate attempt to keep up with the candy coming down the conveyor belt? Well, that memory of Lucille Ball translated into a red-headed sheep who can’t knit to save her life.
Did I mention Lucille is an award-winning sheep? She debuted at Southern Alleghenies Museum of Art where she made me one proud Momma by earning a Juror’s Choice Award in the Artists in our Midst Juried Art Show.
