Farm Chicken



I didn't get my card in on time for the Hambo Hoedown but thought I would post it anyway. We were to use the Farm Chicken with dots and strips. When I looked at this chicken's face all I could imagine is the faces on the picture of American Gothic by Grant Wood. So I opened my Photoshop Elements and got to work trying to make something similar. I am not too good with this program so it took a while but I think I kind of captured it. lol Then I tried to figure out a catchy name that sounded similar but try as I could I couldn't think of a thing. All the images on this card are by Hambo even the church in the background. I colored them with Copics and did a little shading with Prisma colored pencils. Of course there is my sponged clouds. They seem to becoming a standard in my card making. lol
