That time that…
you stood still in Aoraki / Mount Cook National Park, watching a flock of sheep cross the road under the watchful eye of a sheepdog named Betty, who, as it turns out, is now 17 and still jumps on the truck like a pro.
There was no plan to draw this moment, just a memory from my travels in New Zealand.
But when I shared the illustration online, the shepherd himself saw it. I sent him a print of the scene, and it turns out this rare road-crossing happens just once a week. The drawing became the talk of the town.
This print captures more than Mt Cook. It’s about the beauty of being slowed down, a quiet rural moment, and the vivid colour tucked into everyday nature.
Perfect for: travellers, mountain lovers, and anyone who finds joy in slowing down.
