You might know about my ChickenSketches if you hang out in Online Poultry Show! If not, here's the deal:

Send me a picture of the chicken (or other bird). I'll do a painting/drawing in any media requested. I'll add scripture, words, whatever upon request. Details are yours!

I'm open to anything, especially trades. PM me or post here! BTW, totally not a serious seller about this. Trades for crafts you do are awesome!

Pretty! I love gouldian finches. I'd love to have a huge, exquisite aviary where I could put a handful of gouldians. They're like rainbows with wings. *wistful sigh*

Hey, have you tried doing customized X-mas tree ornaments? I get those glass ball ornaments that come in a big box and an assortment of colors- and use either canvas quality acrylics or oils (but they take forever to dry)- usually portraits of a pet, with name and date. Everyone loves a custom ornament!

I don't have time to do them this year, but always had good luck with them in the past.

Good luck!
 
Those drawings capture the general character of each bird. Nice job.

When I was in high school, I wasn't at all popular, so I would hang out in the library by myself and sketch ducks and songbirds using a big bird reference book as a guide. I still have those drawings. They're the best I've ever done.

Save your drawings!

I didn't have time for drawing in high school - I was too popular.
Unfortunately, I didn't have time for studying either.

Justifiably, my popularity has waned every year since.

Anyway, nice job on the sketches, Envirogirl. I am envious of anyone with drawing talent.

Beautiful Pictures Envirogirl I still love my egg carton label the best it has done very well and I am almost out of the 100 I printed ! Burntumber The whole aviary thing is overrated I bred gouldians, owl finches, parrot finches, society finches, zebra finches, black headed nuns, red cheeked weavers, diamond doves, and button quail. It took me four hours a day to care and prepare all of the separate feed for the different breeds and the main aviary and breeder cages. I was sucesful at breeding and loved it but once school started to become harder I had to give them up and switched my interest to farming! I do miss the colors of the Gouldians I had both yellow backed and all three head colors also with some purble white and lilac breasted morphs.
