After meeting Archie and Oscar along with their prize winning Suffolk sheep, I was looking forward to going through all the imagery I had collected from my visit to their farmyard, back in the studio. The Suffolk sheep are a handsome looking animal with their distiguished black heads and I was really excited to start sketching them.

These are some of the pencil sketches that I did from the boy's prize winning ewe. I really enjoyed doing these drawings as there are so many different textures and marks within the ewe's fleece.

I created some handmade stamps from the simple shapes within my pencil drawings. With the stamps I have produced these prints, I think that the Suffolk's distinctive black face has created a really bold print which I am really please with and I hope will create an effective design in the future.

A big thank you to Archie and Oscar for taking time out of their half term to tell me all about their Suffolk sheep, I will keep a look out to see how they do at the shows this year!

Sheep are actually really efficient when it comes to resources. Just like the coconut, almost every part of its body can be used for something. The wool that the sheep produce can be made into different kinds of clothing, its meat can be eaten, they even produce milk than can be used to make great cheese. I am very sure that they are one of the most important cattle in the world. I think entering the sheep pasture business can be fruitful.

    Hello

    I am Izzi, farmer’s daughter and textile designer at IzziRainey. If I am not designing or sewing you will find me out in the farmyard with my cattle. I am constantly seeking inspiration for my prints, not that I have to look very far. Growing up on the farm, I have always been influenced by my surroundings and this combined with my passion for farming is what inspires my designs. I love spending time on the farm but I also enjoy learning about other people’s animals, passions and stories, which are also influential to my design process. I hope you enjoy reading ‘Over the Farm Gate’
