Chicken Sunday

chickens, prismacolor on canson mi-teintes I went to my neighbor’s yesterday to clean out the henhouse and get a loaded wheelbarrow full of manure, it’s fantastic for the garden. There were three hens sitting on eggs, and they ignored us the entire time.

Rhode Island red, prismacolor on canson mi-teintes I went back later on to sketch them. They are quite happy to gather around my feet as I sketch. I found doing their bills difficult (no surprises there) but it was a very pleasant end to the weekend…

  1. Niiice…interestingly, in all the yrs we’ve had chickens, I’ve never tried to sketch them.
