Ended Official BYC Mini Contest #4 - Show us your talent! Create a work of art

[DwayneNLiz]

Okay....I've worked very hard on this this morning. So far I have cleared a work spot on the kitchen table. Now I sit with pencil in hand, staring at the clean white sheet of paper and it's been 45 minutes. Still no chicken. When can I expect one? Are there magic words to make a chicken appear? I'm waiting patiently but so far I still have blank sheet and nothing has shown up. No chicken. Nowhere. Pass me another Margarita...waiting for a chicken to get here is boring.

could be awhile

I'm liking this thread.....

Obviously this is not an entry because it's not chickens, it's pheasants. But I got so bored waiting for a chicken to jump onto my paper that I poked around and found this to show you all...fabric is really what I love to work with..


In the shadows of the hallway where it hangs, the dimensional aspect is clearer.





Hanging across the back of the couch, the colors look better.


Annnnd..still no chicken on my paper. <sigh>

Maybe I will think of something. If it was a horse or a dragon...I can draw those. A chicken...not so much.

Gee I'm a bit harsh when I'm tired.
I thought you'd

me back. (It's what I'd do)

Quote: Totally agree that yours are artwork. Not an easy thing to do. I still have two pumpkins left myself.
Thinking, thinking, thinking...lol.

Ok...so I've been thinking...it can be any medium at all; egg shells, pictures of eggs or chicks...it just has to be "chicken related?"
I'm getting ideas...

If you want to make something with eggs or egg shells, there's a mini contest for that:
https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/...ni-contest-10-creative-eggs-eggshells-contest

So far, there haven't been many entries in that contest so your odds of winning a calendar are big!

I would have smacked ya and made a snarky comment, but I was in a hurry.

OH.... But I can smack you now, if you want!!

Quote: Oh geez...maybe I should look at the rest of the contests.

I've only read two so far.

..ouch?
The ideas are only good IF I get time to actually follow through with the ideas.

Nice.

How does this not fall apart?  Looks like many areas are not attached?  Guess it's illusion 

All the areas are attached, its just veeeeery intricate in some places.

Trying to figure out another entry.....I've got an idea, or I might just leave at a pumpkin. We'll see...
