Been Thinking about Chickens

I have been thinking about chickens. My grandmother had them and my mother was always picking one up and hugging it, (gross.) Anyway, I guess cats will have to suffice. Still one can dream and paint.

The second painting is a scene from my favorite movie. I think the actress, Jennifer Ehle, who played Elizabeth is wonderful. The sincere, loving expression she gives Mr. Darcy is... sincere and loving. Playing opposite Colin Firth could have helped, maybe a little, perhaps a very little.
