Rolly Polly Lamb by Ashleigh Ritchie is a joyful original woodcut print, capturing the playful spirit of a fluffy lamb tumbling among tall daisies. Its little body curls and rolls in carefree delight, with an expression of innocent curiosity that embodies the lighthearted essence of springtime in the countryside.
The bold black lines of the woodcut carving give the lamb and flowers a strong, graphic presence. Without added colour, the striking contrast of ink on paper highlights the textures and details of the carving — from the lively marks in the meadow to the soft, rounded forms of the lamb’s fleece. This simplicity allows the strength of the linework and the character of the carving to shine.
At its heart, this artwork is a celebration of simple joys and youthful play. Rolly Polly Lamb invites viewers into a world of warmth and wonder, where the smallest creature can embody freedom and delight. Ashleigh Ritchie’s hand-carved detail and playful style make this piece both endearing and timeless.
