Meet True Blue Ewe, she features her drover, holding his shepherd's crook, sitting contemplatively by a beautiful cool billabong. The sheep are grazing peacefully, in lush paddocks, with mountains and hills in the distance, that resemble our local mountain range – The Grampians. She was painted for The Kaniva Ministers Association and depicts the Aussie version of the well loved psalm 'The Lord is My Shepherd.' True Blue was painted by local christian artists Michelle, Margaret and Kerryn. Scroll down to listen to the Aussie version and see its meaning.
