About this artwork

So many people keep chickens these days, and Catherine found these girls amongst her daughter's brood. The variety and beauty of their plumage attracted her to photograph and then paint them. Catherine uses here a very painterly style of wet in wet painting, keeping key edges very soft as needed. The gold and grey/blue palette is calming, yet the busy activity of these chickens is pleasantly evident.
