BACKYARD HENS

August 21 - September 7, 2020

 

 

                   

From August 21 – September 4, Jean Kigel Studio returns to her bird series this time with oil paintings of backyard hens. 

These paintings weigh in on the current impulse to provide for one self as much as possible, by raising backyard hens for meat and for eggs. 

Having grown up on a poultry farm, Kigel found watching hens to be a Zen experience.  Her paintings capture the nuances of hens as they posture, peck, and strut.  These small oils convey the broodiness, compassion, perplexity, and majesty that hens are capable of. 

Discover this show both on line at www.jeankigel.com and in person, by appointment, at 1396 Back Cove Road in Waldoboro.  (Masks and social distancing required.)  For more information, contact jean@jeankigel.com   or call 832-5152.
