I'm just home from a hen weekend so I feel it's appropriate to show you this painting next!
It was my second favourite so I had to sell her really. She now lives in someone elses kitchen, clutching a recipe for chicken soup. And yes, that is glitter glue around the basket. I just love glitter glue... really finishes a piece. Alot of toddlers will agree with me on that.
I felt a bit guilty painting this. It is one of my darker paintings. Did the poor hen really need to see the recipe?
When I'm painting or drawing I have the expression on my face that I want the character I'm drawing to have. So for this I had a confused hen face on and then a hungry gypsy girl face on.

another work of genius and i love the collage aspect with the ear ring and recipe and of course the glitter.
ReplyDeleteI do think poor little hens look is more 'absolutely terrified' than confused...although not having had the pleasure of meeting you, maybe that is what you look like when your confused ?
Jaboopee, Thanks! I actually do look terrified when confused! I hate not knowing what's going on, like the poor hen. Well observed!
ReplyDeleteI must say I completely agree with you that whenever I'm drawing or painting something (or somone!) I always have the expression of whatever i'm painting! be it smiling, angry, sad..!
