Illustration Friday- SAVE
A few years back I took an illustrative painting class with Cathy Gendron. One of our assignments was to create an illustration for an article about the feral chickens on Key West in Florida. One of the controversial solutions was to pay citizens to round up the chickens without harming them. I thought it would be funny to portray a cowboy "roundup" from the chicken's viewpoint. I guess you could say the chicken wants to be SAVED from the cowboys!

A fun concept for sure, but I'm really drawn to the undertone colors in this one. It makes for a really rich palette.
Great job! This is a very neat perspective and I adore the facial expression of the chicken!!
Fabulous! I like the contrast colors of the cowboy and the chicken. It's really highlighted the poor chicken in fear.
This is great! An excellent illustration!
