"Coat of Many Colors"
I love painting guinea fowl. They have character. This oil is 10" x 6" and is bound for the Southeastern Wildlife Show in Charleston, mid-February. I just finished a companion piece, a 10" x 6" female peahen, titled 'Robe and Crown'. They're the odd couple.
BOTH PIECES ARE SOLD

Perhaps the title of this painting is a little corny, but what else to title a painting of a chicken?
I had fun painting this 4" x 7" oil (on Ampersand Gessobord). It was a lesson in edges.
As I grew up on a poultry farm in New Zealand, every now and then I must paint a chicken to remind me of my roots.
In New Zealand, a chicken is a baby hen. An adult is called a hen or a chook.
