One of only a few chicken pieces I have done. My sweet Licorice, of whom I lost about three years ago.

As for mediums used, I sketched this on my IPad with an Apple Pencil using a digital art app called Procreate.

I just painted this acrylic study of two of my favorite chickens who are sadly no longer with us. It's a little smaller than 6" x 3 1/2" on mixed media paper.
