Hi everyone in BYC land! I hope this post finds you well. I'd like to get a thread going that focuses on art that you create with chickens as the subject matter. All mediums, styles and levels are encouraged. I have seen that there are many creative people on this site and my hope is to...
Unfortunately, Cinnamon passed away. I had her cremated and am waiting on the ashes.
Attached is a picture I drew of her being greeted by my late rabbit at the rainbow bridge. We tried our best but I’m afraid she failed to thrive.
Our other three chicks have grown a LOT! The two barred babies...
Since I am an artist- I require that my chickens participate fully in my life style. 😉This includes posing, photo opts and getting their portraits painted. They do not get paid - just extra rations. This painting is from a photo I took of my Granddaughter with "Bossy" She really wanted to reach...
Watercolor portrait of my BO Honey. I am a school teacher and home bored on winter break. School starts again next week. I knew my chicken friends would appreciate it!
I recently started an Instagram account for my flock, and I have come to realize that chicken Instagram is a whole niche/community. Does anyone else have an Instagram account dedicated to their birds? I'm looking for my accounts to follow!

Hello!
I've finally worked up enough courage to post this. I was afraid to post this as I'm still working on improving my art even though I've been a digital artist since 2012. Be sure to post some feedback about my art! It really helps!
If you want art of your deceased pet, the fee is free...
Mossy, a Columbian Wyandotte chicken, was with us for over 7 years. Friendly, extremely smart and observant, with a great memory and a very pleasant but strong personality, she captured our hearts, providing us not just with over 1000 eggs but with years of fun and joy. She earned her place in...
