Which Came First? The Butterfly or the Chicken?
A majestic white hen holds court in this whimsical mixed-media collage, casting a very suspicious eye at the butterfly flying nearby. The eternal question is posed right on the canvas: Which came first?
Built from magazine pictures and strips of magazine pages layered with acrylic paint, this piece has a rich, textured quality that rewards a close look. Words woven into the composition — Chicken, Pollo, Poulet, Nest, Egg — add a playful, multilingual wit, while a golden sun glows overhead in a dreamy teal sky.
A perfect conversation piece for a kitchen, dining room, or any space that could use a little humor and heart.
