Chicken Collage Day 18 (Mar. 3 2012)

Today I spent a little time in the studio, working on this project, a collage of a chicken made up of patterns. (The idea of making an image of a chicken made out of patterns came to me last summer while I was admiring the chickens at Long Hill Garden.) Today I worked a bit on the tail feathers, and then added to the pattern on the back of the bird. I also started a new black and white pattern on the edge of the wings. I don't have a real plan, am just putting this together as I go along. I realized today that I am avoiding finishing the wing; I think I need to look at some pictures of chickens to check on the size and shape of their wings.
