Different Strokes-Chicks

 Close ups

Oil on 7x5 gessoed hardboard.

This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. The very talented Kay was the gracious hostess who supplied all the reference photos.

The one little odd-ball chick caught my attention. Was it proud to stand out...or trying to blend in?? Great interactions between the three.

 The board was lightly toned with alizarin crimson acrylic paint.
The oil paint was applied running the full gamut as far as thickness goes. From ultra thin wash which allows some drawing and toning to show....to laid on thickly via painting knife (on the odd-ball).

C&C welcome. Thanks for checking it out!

This is my submission to Carol Marine's DPW Challenge. As per the challenge, this is a split complementary of yellow orange, blue, and purple. This applies to the colors of the objects or areas within the painting...not the palette.
I know that the principle is sound. But I'm not too sure about the result I achieved. Will have to evaluate it more/longer.

I like the symbolism of chicks at this time of year. The promise of New Life at Spring! Easter! God's Promise to us!

^{Luke 23:23} But with loud shouts they insistently demanded that he be crucified, and their shouts prevailed. ²⁴ So Pilate decided to grant their demand. ²⁵ He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, the one they asked for, and surrendered Jesus to their will.
