Poule chocolat

Oh the beautiful hen made of chocolate! I've always wanted one of these French delights at Easter time (Pâques) but never bought one. This week we had the extreme good fortune to win, not one, but two poules! I've been on an overnight trip to Antrain and Saint Malo and came back to a rainy afternoon on Brehat island. What better way to spend the time than painting this little beauty.

Oils on canvas, 20 x 20cms.

Oh, and the chocolate didn't disappoint, taste-wise, either. Miam miam!
