Fun Farm Graphic

Isn't this colorful illustration delightful? I think this would do well in a kitchen or in a child's play area. But it could also be used for a pillow cover or greeting card, couldn't it?
The little chicks are as cuddly looking as the real thing, and the rooster is obviously a good dancer, isn't he? ;)
We hope you'll enjoy our latest harvest time image with lots of your--
Happy Creativity!

P.S. Check comments for the key to the meaning behind the picture. Rhissanna had the answer!

We fixed this one up to a certain extent. It really was quite messy when we found it, but we could see its potential underneath the mess.
Please credit us for that process should you intend to sell 
art made using our version of this image. 
Otherwise, have fun, and enjoy!

  4. Oh! I know this song!

    Cock a doodle do,
    My Dame has lost her shoe.
    My Master's lost his fiddling stick
    And doesn't know what to do!


    Please, it's an innocent children's nursery rhyme. Minds out of the gutter.

    Despite the fact our rooster's missing a tad bit of one tail feather, I do believe you could be on to something!

  17. electra: Actually, Rhissanna is a school teacher with quite a lot of experience in the Language Arts, along with being very well equipped to introduce children of all ages to literature.
    Check out her blogs--we feature both buttons in our left sidebar. Lots of unique fun at both locations!
