As some of you may recall, I started offering mobile wallpaper as a win-win way to get something fun and support what I do in lieu of a Ko-Fi and all that. The first two haven't been runaway hits per se but there's been enough interest to think it's a fair idea to continue to add more options. ❀️

So I hope you might enjoy seeing the latest choice!

Happy #Caturday from my little clowder!

The past several months have been leaner than usual. I set up a Ko-Fi account, etc. but it's difficult for me to share that. I'd rather people get prints but I understand too well the $$ issue there. That was what led me do something small specifically for mobile wallpaper - a win-win if you like this, you can get something and support what I do.

Digital Art Painting of a restaurant known as The Big Chicken in Marietta, Georgia. It currently houses a KFC. The roof of the restaurant includes a large red chicken. In front of the restaurant are a few vintage cars that were closer to the time that it opened. 

And yes if this were a video you would see that the Chicken's eyes and beak are animated. The pupil of the eyes rotate and the beak opens and closes. If you have never seen it that may explain why it's such a local legend.
