Illustration Friday: Chicken


"The Imposter"

C'mon, did you really expect the raven Queen to paint a chicken?

The Sketchbook Project deadline has been extended a few days which gave me time to whip this up. Have a great weekend everyone!

Oh those trickster ravens ;)

  16. A true raven. They are the tricksters of the bird world, along with magpies but I think they are the same family.
