Dermot,
What an unusual kind of sheep with four horns instead of two--must be a rare kind. Never saw such before. Looks like the points of his (assuming male gender) upper horns have been cut off so he will not do so much damage. Has it been recently shorn? Looks like clipper marks on its fur. Green background brings out the brown animal, which has some reddishness in its coloring. Well done!

Hello Dermot
Tie a small bell on its forehead and it becomes a brown elf!
What a strange species!
Cheers.
