"A Stack of Chickens with Sunflowers on the Side"
20 x 24 - acrylic
$875 Framed

The roosters are a pair from Herb and Linda Allen's flock up the Green Mountain Road
out of Penticton, B.C. The little hen has been hanging about my sketchbooks for a pretty long while
 -- I felt it was time she strutted her stuff in a painting. The sunflowers, really Balsam Root, give us
our most welcome springtime burst of colour. The mountain hillsides are carpeted in gold and green.
Too bad they don't last as long as daisies. When I got the birds together in a panel sketch
they seemed to call for paint.
