Artist Statement Formally trained in Fine Art I found myself taking life too seriously. With tongue-in-cheek, my collection of poultry portraits took shape. I began thinking out of the "coop", and decided that clothing and jewelry would complete the personality of these delightful creatures. Popular chicken euphemisms, famous quotes and kitchen humor provided the inspiration for many of the background themes, and script included in the designs. The ideas just kept coming, and to date I have many more paintings in the "wings". Pardon the puns, but painting these portraits brings me such joy and makes me smile. I hope that the viewers feel the same.
