'Chickens'

Acrylic on canvasboard

This new painting will show a pair of Silver Dorkings amongst apples on the orchard floor. This is a painting I've been intending to paint for ages, so have finally started it. After playing around with the composition for a while and altering the postures of the birds, I've finally settled on the image I'm happy with (top), which I will begin to work on adding more detail definition to the birds, whilst working up the orchard floor at the same time.
