I borrowed the photo for this painting from a friend who had spent one day last September at the fall fair. I just loved the inquisitive look on this chickens face, I just had to paint it.

I started with a blue underpainting for this chicken, I have been experimenting with slightly different colours...even maybe a bit less colour.  I love that you make the rules as you go with being creative.

This photo was taken at Nanoose Edibles, the best place to buy salad greens. My husband took the photo, the chickens were so friendly, they came wandering over to us as we started to approach them.

The photo for this painting came from a friends facebook page...thank you Ron.  Messy strokes and brush dragging were used often to get the look I wanted for this chicken.

I have had this photo for some time, I never am quite sure how to tackle feathers. I fiddled around quite a bit with this painting, I think the background has about 8 layers of paint. I just had to put my brush down and be done.

I painted this chicken with softer edges and blended the paint a little more that usual.  I am trying to find a balance between blending and defining with my paint strokes.

Today I decided to play around a little with the colour...no reason why there can't be a purple chicken.
