Shearing the Weaners
(2014)
Subject: A Working Shearing Shed in Australia Dimensions (centimeters): 57 x 86 Medium: Graphite and coloured pencils Description: Tupra Station, Hay, N.S.W. Shearing Shed in action in springtime shearing the weaners. This is the new shed as the old shearing shed was destroyed by a tornado December 2007. This drawing took Chris 334 hours to complete. He has kept some of the old shed in the drawing as well. During his thirty years service with the McLachlan family, I managed Tupra Station from 1982 to 2003 and we generally shore around 40,000 Merino sheep.
