Artst Retreat Day

I had a really relaxed, focused day yesterday at another artists house. We spent the entire day painting, and both accomplished a lot! I did this new chicken piece. It was the third attempt, after 2 tries on a still life which did NOT work! I scraped it down twice & decided it was time to change subjects. So viola, a new chicken! I like him quite a bit, I think.
