Dixie Chicken Christmas Series, Part I
I don’t know why this makes sense for a Christmas greeting visual, but…I’ll just insist it does…who would refuse a little Dixie Chicken? Is this a series? We’ll see…we’ll see.

So there I was….
Minding my own business in my studio, painting (by the way) a new piece about a really yellow chicken while listening to Little Feat belt out a chorus of “Dixie Chicken,” when I thought, oh!

This has been slow and go, but there is good reason. I guess once in a while, as age dictates, we need a little upkeep and maintenance, and those endeavors drag us away from our passions! I’m recovering from a little facelift and it’s been challenge not to just nap the day away! I am getting back to the studio soon, revived and renewed.
