Rolly Polly Lamb by Ashleigh Ritchie is a joyful woodcut print brought to life with watercolour. The piece features a fluffy white lamb tumbling playfully among tall daisies, its little body curling and rolling in carefree delight. The lamb’s expression is one of innocent curiosity, capturing the lighthearted essence of springtime in the countryside.
The bold black outlines of the woodcut technique give the lamb and flowers a lively, illustrative quality, while the watercolor washes add a softness that perfectly balances the strong lines. Greens splash and scatter across the background, suggesting a fresh meadow alive with growth and energy. The textured, speckled tones within the lamb’s fleece add depth and character, making it feel both whimsical and tactile.
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 even the smallest creature can embody a sense of freedom and delight. Ashleigh Ritchie’s playful style and thoughtful details make this piece both endearing and uplifting — a reminder to embrace the lighter, more carefree moments in life.
