2024 Catalog Cover Artist Ashley White

Posted: May 13, 2024

Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival 2024 cover artist Ashley White

For the 2024 catalog cover, we had custom pet portrait artist Ashley White devise a cover that introduced our community to a valuable albeit sometimes overlooked member of the shepherd community – the noble livestock guardian dog. Ashley selected graphite (pencil) on bristol board as her medium. The cover features a Great Pyrenees keeping watch over the herd from a barn while a sheep cozies up next to its loyal protector. The barn scene wraps around the back of the catalog to reveal the rest of the herd and a lamb settling in for the evening.

Ashley received a degree in Illustration from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2006. Since graduating, she has focused on growing her career as a freelance web designer and user interface designer. Recently, she has taken up fine art again and is accepting custom pet portraits and art commissions through Etsy. 

Ashley lives in Damascus, MD with her husband and two sons. She also has a shepherd-boxer mix and two horses.

You can find Ashley’s Etsy shop for custom pet portraits here.

More information about her freelance web design and graphic design services are here.

You can get in touch wit her her via email at .

Didn't make it to the festival, or were so sidetracked by everything else there was to see and do that you didn't make it to the t-shirt building? A limited selection of 2024 commemorative merchandise is now available in our online store at www.sheepman.com/product-category/maryland-sheep-wool-festival-online/!We only have one style of tote bag left, so once these are gone, they're gone. We will not be ordering any additional merchandise.We have three colors of short-sleeve t-shirts for you to choose from, but not every size is available in every color. If we run out of a color and it doesn’t matter to you if you get a different one (you just want a shirt) please indicate your second choice of color in the notes. There is also a limited quantity of long sleeve t-shirts. 2024 posters are still available in two sizes. If we run out of an item you wanted, we will just send the rest of your order. A note on shipping: The "guesstimated" shipping fee that is computer generated by the online sales platform at the time of your order tends to run high. Your credit card will not be charged until your order has been pulled and the actual shipping costs determined. You can also pick up your order at the Sheepman Supply showroom in Frederick, Maryland; just indicate that in the notes section.As far as other merchandise, if you don't see it here, we are either totally sold out (like the canvas boat totes and almost every style and color of sweatshirt), or it's been packed away in storage until next year. #mdsw #mdsw2024 #festivalgear ...
