Emma Cowley Cockerel

Hi Emma Cowley.

Emma Cowley is from London and her website can be found at www.emmacowley.co.uk. She has quite a few animals and she was kind enough to drop off this Gallic Rooster, which just happens to be the national bird of France.

Good work Emma!

Block Block Block

The first American entry comes from Don Somppi and his wood block. I am amazed at the level of detail on the eye placement and position. Nice job Don!

Don is short on a website, but he can be found here on Facebook.

Don has Degree in Art/Education from OSU. He has taught art at North Valley High School (Grants Pass, OR) in 1977. He has been producing Linocut prints since 1975 and to date carved over 400 blocks. Don, we are glad you did this one for sure. Thank you

Denis Mohr's Black Chicken

I first emailed Denis and asked if this was a chicken and then thought about my preconceived ideas of chickens and pigs. I said to myself, "Josh pay attention this is an awesome chicken".

Thank you to Denis Mohr!

Check out the website of one Denis Mohr, very clever. http://denismohr.com/

Julia Humpfer The 2:07 AM Chicken

I love the term more better and here is some more better illustration from Germany. Her name is Julia Humpfer and she can be found at http://www.juliahumpfer.com/

The first email I see this morning came in at 2:07AM and this project is growing. Special thanks to each of our contributors so far and please check out their websites and blogs. There are some great artists out there and hopefully The Chicken and Pig book can capture the same spirit that these artists put in their everyday work.

Thank you Julia!
