On the left side of this painting you can see three bighorn sheep in the center area. One sheep is closer then the rest and is looking straight at the viewer of the painting.

The rock gets higher as it moves to the right of the painting and a tree grows from the ground at the very point the rock touches the right side picture frame. In the distance are mountains with snow covered peaks. The colour of the mountains and snow is a purple, blue hue. All three of the bighorn sheep have full, rounded horns.
