Greetings my wonderful Patrons!
I hope you are all in good health.
Before I go into the details about this particular drawing, I want to remind you again to stay safe. We are all dealing with this Covid-19 pandemic together and we need to keep doing our best to keep ourselves and our loved ones safe.
Do wash your hands frequently and wear a quality face mask whenever you travel outdoor and be sure to keep doing the social distancing from each other when you're outside in the public.
I want to share this drawing with you guys because I want to make an (optional) offering, so if you have spare minute, please do read the descriptions until the end. <3

Okay, so about a week ago my former university reached out to me asking about my availability as one of its alumni in fine art to participate in a charity art exhibition in supporting our local medical professionals and essential workers during this Covid-19 pandemic.
I don't talk much about my real life things but I was a teacher in one of local private high school and I lost one of my student to Covid-19 back in February 2020. Here's a some pictures of me teaching back in late 2019 before the pandemic that you can check out over my DeviantArtstash by following this link -> https://sta.sh/21iocetf31qu
So yeah, I was feeling bad when I heard the news about one of my student passed because of Covid-19 virus, she had an underlying respiratory disease and was just 17 years old, her parents is a good friend of mine. So with that being said I feel like I need to participate on this one in hope to lessen the suffering of people affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Before I go into the drawing descriptions, I think it's best to let you know about the online art exhibition itself, I'll keep it short and simple. It will be held on June 25th - July 25th 2020, the artworks (my contribution, lecturers, and alumnus that are participating) will be displayed both on the campus gallery and online platform Maranatha Art Space on Instagram.
Here's the fun part, all artworks are open for sale. 90% will go into the charity and 10% for the exhibition expense thingies. However, there is price limit for every artwork. All artists are only allowed to put a price tag of their exhibited artwork between 50.000 IDR ($4,-) to 500.000 IDR ($35,-). So, I put it on the max price ($35,-) of course... this drawing is like on my MD+ tier which should be around $75,- and it will be water-colored too. x'D
Now, for the optional offering I was talking about, if any of you interested in possessing the original watercolor artwork as one of my artwork collector, the final price will be $60,- ($35,- for the original physical artwork + $25,- for shipping expenses worldwide). I will get nothing but a charity experience. The claim will be available later when the art exhibition is done which is around July 25th, it's still a long way but make sure you let me know if you're interested. :3
Anyway, you guys will be seeing it first as my active Patrons of course, I will make this one available to all Patrons both the sketch drawing and the colored version, but I can't share the original high-resolution, just a preview of 1770px x 1250px.
That'd be all for the charity details, let's go to the artwork description. =)

"Here we are again with our favorite collie-shepherd couple, this time they are working as a shepherds (they are basically shepherd dogs). At this scene, we have a lamb that appears to be unwell and the lamb is wearing a face mask, our shepherd with the help from the collie is trying to cover the lamb with a warm blanket over the lamb."
This idea has more details and in-depth interpretation that will be revealed once I finished coloring it (It's 2 pages long). Please do stay tuned for the colored version~ ^^
Thanks for viewing! Please do leave a comment on this one if you want, I'd really appreciate it.
