"Soaring Dreams"

In "Soaring Dreams," my three backyard hens are captured mid-air, lifted above the trampoline below. While chickens aren’t known for their flight, there’s something magical about the way they flutter just enough to feel like they’re soaring — even if only for a brief moment. This painting captures that spirit of hopeful ambition, a reflection of how small leaps can still feel like big victories.

The trampoline, often a symbol of carefree childhood memories, becomes a stage for these dreamers — a place where even my grounded little hens can imagine themselves taking flight. The piece is a playful reminder that dreaming sometimes just needs a good bounce and a little belief.

Soaring Dreams blends the joy I find in my chickens with the universal desire to rise above limitations. It’s a celebration of possibility — of finding flight in places you least expect.

Thank you for sharing in this dream – Amy

"Lady Hens Walking the Beach"

Part of the Chicken Stories Collection

In Lady Hens Walking the Beach, the twin hen-women — statuesque and surreal, their golden hair topped with bright red combs, their feathered bodies a deep, regal purple. Side by side, they walk in quiet unison along the shoreline, their feet just skimming the edge of the water. One wears the faintest trace of a smile, while the other remains still-faced, as if carrying a thought too delicate to speak.

There is something timeless about their stride — two figures moving forward together, calmly, rhythmically, as if they’ve done this before, and will again. The beach becomes a place of gentle ritual, a space for reflection and steady companionship.

Lady Hens Walking the Beach is about the comfort of familiar paths, the presence of those who walk beside us, and the quiet inner shifts that happen when we move through the world with someone who truly sees us. A nod to enduring connection and shared silence, it captures the feeling of both journey and return.

Thank you for walking with me – Amy

"Dance or Break Free"

Part of the Chicken Stories Collection

In Dance or Break Free, a small yellow chick stands on a cream-colored floor, one foot lifted mid-step, suspended by strings. The chick is posed, a marionette — controlled by an unseen force. The moment is both delicate and unsettling, capturing the tension between innocence and restraint, between being held and being free.

This piece is a quiet protest — a reflection on the treatment of chickens in industrial farming, where their natural instincts are restricted, and their stories are silenced before they can even begin.

Dance or Break Free asks a question: are we simply making them perform for us, or are we listening to what they need? The marionette strings become a symbol of control — but also a call to awareness. 

This painting is a plea for empathy, a reminder that these creatures were made to live, explore, and feel.

Thank you for seeing the story behind the strings – Amy

Grateful to share this painting with you — Amy

"Lady Hens at the Quiet Shore"

Part of the Chicken Stories Collection

In "Lady Hens at the Quiet Shore," two hen-women — twin figures with statuesque faces and golden hair crowned by red combs — stand facing each other on the edge of a beach. With their purple feathered bodies and mirrored stance, they seem suspended in a moment of silent understanding. 

This painting lives in the space between surreal and sacred — a quiet conversation between sisters, soulmates, or reflections of the self. The shoreline becomes a threshold — between land and water, solitude and connection, past and present.

"Lady Hens at the Quiet Shore" invites us to consider the bonds we carry and the strange, beautiful ways we find ourselves reflected in others. 

Thank you for standing at the shoreline with me – Amy

"The Dappled Hen"

Part of the Chicken Stories Collection

In The Dappled Hen, a cream and brown hen stands confidently against a light blue background, her body adorned with bold, unexpected blue spots that stretch across her chest and cover her wing area. A few soft white spots trail toward her tail, fading like echoes of movement or memory. She stands grounded on a rich brown floor, poised and unbothered — fully herself.

This surreal, striking hen seems to carry her story on her feathers. The blue spots feel symbolic — like markings of experience, identity, and perhaps even transformation. She’s both ordinary and extraordinary, familiar and fantastical.

The Dappled Hen celebrates difference — the way we wear our history, our individuality, and our mystery. It’s a visual declaration that beauty doesn't lie in sameness, but in what sets us apart.

There’s something unapologetic in her stance, something quietly powerful. She doesn’t ask to be explained — she simply is.

Thank you for seeing the extraordinary in the everyday – Amy

"Rise of the Local Roost"

Part of the Chicken Stories Collection

In "Rise of the Local Roost," a chicken floats gracefully through a bright blue sky, lifted by a bundle of egg-shaped balloons. Lighthearted and surreal, the piece carries both whimsy and weight — a gentle nudge to look upward, and inward, at the choices we make.

At a time when the cost of eggs is climbing and conversations about food sources grow louder, this painting honors the farmers who care deeply for their flocks.

Rise of the Local Roost is both a call and a  reminder to support local, to seek out the stories behind our food, and to rise alongside those who raise their animals with love.

Thank you for lifting this story with me – Amy

"Lady Hens Enjoying the View"

Part of the Chicken Stories Collection

In "Lady Hens Enjoying the View," two serene hen-women — twin figures with statuesque faces, soft pastel yellow hair, and golden wings — stand together on a wide, flat rock at the water’s edge. Their pale, almost ghostly forms face outward in quiet unison, gazing across the northern Minnesota shoreline. Behind them rise the iconic cliffs, red-brown and majestic, crowned with pines. Rocks jut gently from the lake, creating a rhythm of stillness and strength in the open water.

This piece is a meditation on presence — the quiet kind that comes with shared experience and reverence for nature. The two figures, identical yet individual, embody companionship without conversation. 

"Lady Hens Enjoying the View" is about pausing to witness the beauty around us, to stand still in a fleeting world. It’s about the comfort of being alongside someone who sees what you see, feels what you feel, without needing to explain a thing. A moment of unity, a breath of peace, a shared gaze over the water — sometimes, that’s everything.

Thank you for sharing in this stillness with me – Amy

In "Three Dreamers Adrift," my three backyard hens float peacefully on a bed that soars above the lake. Suspended between reality and imagination, the piece reflects the quiet magic of drifting off to sleep — when the ordinary becomes extraordinary. Inspired by bedtime stories and the gentle rhythm of the water near home. This painting reflects the quiet comfort of dreams — a place to drift beyond the familiar.

With gratitude for your curiosity – Amy

"Stay"

In "Stay," three backyard hens tell a quiet story of connection and letting go. One hen drifts away in a hot air balloon, while another stands on a tower of boxes, reaching desperately to follow. The third remains grounded, watching longingly from below.

This piece reflects the ache of wanting to hold on — to keep those we love close — even when they must move beyond us. It's a tender reminder of the bonds we share, the heartbreak of goodbyes, and the quiet hope that love will always linger, no matter the distance.

Thank you for sharing in this memory – Amy
