For the sake of art, Mahala stalked her neighborhood chickens, followed them around like a chicken paparazzi. She also found some helpful images on mypetchicken.com. She used the pictures as references for a series of works for a show but then was too sick to attend her own opening (chicken flu, I expect). Lovely line work on these!

Watercolor and ink on paper, mounted on cradled panels. All sales go directly to the League’s neighborhood chicken stalker. Send me a note if you want one and it’ll be ready for pick up at the League this Thursday at or after 2pm.
