A Big Chicken


 12 x 16 oil on linen

This was a fun one to paint because I was painting on linen!  It is all the difference in the world as it accepts paint so much better than cotton canvas - love the feel of painting on it!  I won't be posting for the rest of the week as our new grandson will be born on Thursday and we will be busy being Nonie and Blitz!  Can't wait for him to be born and he has a brother and sister who are also anxious to see him.

Chicken - Head On



 6" x 6" oil on stretched canvas

This is my entry for this week's Daily Paint Works Challenge.  We were given a photo of a chicken to paint - front view.   This is  a first for me - face shot of a chicken!  I'm still attempting to paint in a looser fashion with broader brushstrokes - not there yet,  but I'm ok with this one.
