"Wherever the Foot of the Sheep Touches, the Land Turns to Gold", by Joe Belt

This is my first drawing that went into print. I was commissioned by the Food & Fiber Institute, a division of the Texas Dept. of Agriculture, to do a mural as part of a display at the Texas Tech University Museum, highlighting the wool & mohair industry in Texas. This was my original drawing for the mural and the people in charge felt like we needed to do some other things with the art, so we did a limited edition print. That was in 1981.
