Huddleston Chickens


SOLD

8 x 10 Oil On Archival Board

On our way to see a small Community Supported Agriculture farm (CSA) in Huddleston, VA, we passed this wonderful barn.  It was a perfect rural scene complete with roaming chickens.  The scene actually spoke to me.  I could picture the painting that I was going to do.  That doesn't happen much.  No planning, no sketching...Just got right at it.  We joined the CSA, by the way.  We're looking forward to getting fresh organic vegetables, and in our little way helping to support the young family that works so hard to produce the finest vegetables, fruit, and flowers.

"Hey Buddy, Can You Spare 25 Cents?" Chicken Panhandling


6 x 6 Pastel on Wallis Paper, 16 x 16 Framed
$150 + s/h (Framed)

 
These chickens remind me of the panhandlers in New York City.  You'd expect them to ask people as they pass by for a handout.  I think they've learned that this is a good place to hang out... and they say chickens aren't smart....
