“Shearing Sheep”
Color Pencil & Marker on Bristol
14”x17”
What does it truly mean to be a black sheep? Is it simply being different, or is there more beneath the surface? A black sheep is still a sheep—so how much different are you really? Do you choose to be sheared, or is the choice made for you? Are you the one submitting to the shears, or the one holding them? To be a black sheep transcends appearance or acceptance; it’s about recognizing that you are a sheep within a greater system. It’s about confronting the cycles of conformity—acknowledging the shearing as part of a system we follow to find light, or questioning if you’re being sheared simply because you’ve been told it’s right. I ask you this, what kind of sheep are you, and how aware are you of the role you play?
