Here are some more period-appropriate images of sheep shearing you may like. First two have a lot of other stuff going on in the background, but could be cropped to the sheep-shearing bits, as the available download sizes are very big in terms of pixels.

Tao alexis (talk) Thank you, but I'll hold out for something that's in colour and has a definite fantasy bent. It should be in keeping with other art throughout the wiki.
Maxwell (talk) Gotcha. I like using period paintings and illustrations for my own website/wiki -- a single image can make a hugely concentrated dose of history for the players -- but there's always a point where I have to go for proper fantasy illustrations as well. Race and class example pics, for instance.
