WEEKEND ART By Nina

Next week: people & portraits!

not too handy but I try

Today I fixed the swinging door to my chicken coop.. it was ready to fall off and looks like something from the Beverley Hillbillies.

I painted a small mural of a chicken and nailed it to the door. It is secure!

Also, here is a faded mural that I painted a few years ago on my garden shed. Its kind of colorful 'round here.

Here is an aviary that I slapped together (uh -- built) last week. I wanted a "house" for all my birds... 2 ringneck doves, 4 finches, an 2 canaries. There is now room for more! I am not too handy and don't own power tools, so I nailed the thing together and mounted it on my old drafting table :)
