Why chicken art?

I have always found chickens absorbing to watch.

They have different personalities, and an amazing array of communicative sounds.

They enrich a backyard and keep life interesting.

Lastly, I find them beautiful.

So why not paint chickens?


Chicken art includes portraits, paintings, drawings and other animal artworks for sale online.

The chicken and pet paintings shown here are done in Reeves acrylic on stretched canvas.

All prices quoted are in Australian dollars. All works are original.

Please contact the artist for details on how to purchase a painting. In most cases direct transfer is best, and the painting will be sent on receipt of funds. All paintings are insured for transit.
