Great job.

I like it!

I read the other day that hens and cows will draw dust. Put a rooster or a bull in the same scene and it will sell.

Jim, Linda, Sean, Diane.. I'm glad you liked him.

Donald.. Chickens never stick around much longer than two shows. They do sell quite well.

As beautifully as you paint them, I'm not surprised they don't hang around. That is a great thing! I wish I had that problem with some of my art...
