I'm discovering how delightful chickens are to paint! This is another hen from my reference photos at the goat farm. It's so much fun to watch chickens go about their business - every movement has a sense of purpose. I don't know where this gal was going, but she was "truckin'" like she had a very important date with someone or something. I like the light in this painting - I was trying to capture the feeling of the hot sunny day. It was near 100 degrees, maybe she was headed for some shade.
