Fabulous Chickens: A Little Feathered Joy

Do you love chickens? I certainly do!

We have four wonderfully chatty chickens of our own, who keep us entertained with their antics and reward us with lovely fresh eggs.

Fabulous Chickens is an original, hand-printed linocut celebrating these curious, characterful birds. Just look at the way they are watching you! There is something wonderfully amusing about chickens, with their inquisitive expressions, lively personalities and the impression that they know rather more than they are letting on.

With its joyful colours, playful composition and touch of whimsy, this print captures the delightful character of these feathered companions.

Unfortunately, these particular chickens won't lay you any eggs, but they will certainly bring a smile to your face!

Hang them in your kitchen to greet you over your morning coffee, brighten a cosy corner or add a cheerful splash of colour to a picture wall.

Printed entirely by hand

I make all my original linocut prints by hand, without a printing press. Using a wooden spoon, I carefully transfer the ink from the carved lino block onto paper.

This slow, traditional process means that every impression has its own subtle variations in colour and texture. No two prints are ever quite identical, and I love that each carries the individual character of the handmade.
