Sammy the Lamby | Monique Cronje

An original artwork by Monique Cronje featuring her pet lamb Sam.

This clearing belongs to Sammy.
No longer bound to the weight of the world, he rests in a soft green afterlife where the forest glows gently and time moves differently. The lamb lies peacefully, watched over by quiet companions — rabbits and a young deer — who feel less like animals and more like keepers of this place.
Light falls softly through the trees, turning the clearing into a sanctuary of stillness and care.
