This is a really interesting composition Lynda! I love how the chooks (and the light areas) lead the viewer towards an intrigueing distance beyond the screen of trees.Beautiful!
Lynda Robinson replied
Thank you very much Sandra. I think if I was doing something similar today, my proportions would be better! I have learned a bit since I did this painting in the 90’s!

What a fun image Lynda. Love the dance of dark and light.
Lynda Robinson replied
Well it’s a pretty ancient painting now TPS, but I still sorta like it, but I know my technique has changed.
Susan Kimball
Love this!
Lynda Robinson replied
You are very kind Susan. Thank you for loving it.

Just great-and yes, the eye is led off to the disance…almost seems the roosters and chickens are in a magical, free land; i.e. “free range?”
Lynda Robinson replied
Thanks Randi – none of my ‘chooks’ will know the indignity of being ‘caged’!
Susan Bergstrom
Ha…reminds me of the old song…”Ain’t Nobody Here But Us Chickens”! Love this! Well done!
Lynda Robinson replied
Stop makin’ me laugh Susan! Thank you very much indeed for your comment.

Marjorie Wallace
What a wonderful image. When I look at this painting, I feel as if I am right there and it takes me back to when I raised chickens. It was such a special time for me. Fresh eggs every day and little chicks in the Springtime. Great memories.
Lynda Robinson replied
What a really lovely comment Marjorie! Thank you very much for taking the time to leave it for me, and for your interest in my work and my ‘chookies’!
