Poultry Paintings

The poultry paintings are inching along. They might be a little bit too hard for me, so I am taking my time. Productive procrastination is a good way to get through some difficult tasks. I take breaks to rehab frames, blog, touch up old paintings, answer emails, make a new schedule for drawing lessons, sweep, or water plants. All those things need to be done. I’m the boss of me. There is no deadline on the poultry paintings. They aren’t commissions. I have a commission to work on but it is a secret, and the recipient of the project might be a reader of this blog. So, poultry paintings in increments are what you get to see.

Have I convinced myself that it is okay to procrastinate yet?

This is the latest iteration of the rooster named Dinnerbone and the flock, with the appropriate and clever name of “Flock”. (And the rooster painting title is “Dinnerbone”, because I am creative that way.)

Samson discovered my friend’s car, which is named Hot Wheels. She is clever that way. (My car is named Fernando – thank you for being interested in such important personal details.)

  1. I like your chickens. They are vivid and have smaller distinct details, that give them realism. Plus they have bold bright colors.

    Hi. 🙂 Stopping in. Thanks for your card. It fell into the snow but I found it on the way to one of the funerals, I think, which was perfect timing, and the card was still legible, albeit damp from the snow. A three page letter is on the way to you, as we speak.

    Hi.

    • So nice to hear from you, Jennifer. Thank you for checking in, and I’ll be checking my PO Box regularly, looking for a real letter!
