Comment by Patricia Genever on July 24, 2012 at 18:02: Pauline, I want to touch your chicken's feathers. They are so beautiful and reallistic. Love your contrast of light and dark in the background and also the very colourful foreground.... It's a very happy painting.. You really nailed this one didn't ya!!!

Comment by Riya on July 21, 2012 at 20:18: Pauline, this is beautiful. I love the colour of the chickens, you really captured the sun on their feathers. You did an amazing job, I love all the details you've put in the barn and the foreground, well done. I absolutely love that funny white chicken, looking around very curious ^_^. I like the contrast between her elongated form and the other, more chubby, chickens.

Comment by Ningning Li on July 21, 2012 at 3:42: Dorian, you did not simply imitate Richard. You have a lot of things of your own interpretacion in it. I like the frontground as it has beautiful veriaty of colour and brush stroke, good balance. You keep those chickens in the shadow and that make their colour more realistic. You made an effort to detailed the tractor and hut which shows a nice contrast with simple form of those chickens. Very interesting.

Comment by Dorian Aronson on July 20, 2012 at 23:18: You have been working very hard! Wowza you have certainly put down a lot of brush strokes. Very interesting painting, I have wondered all around and keep finding more to see........smiles : ))
