About the Item: "Chick Chat" is an original oil painting on canvas created by Cathryn Ruvalcaba. This painting details four baby chicks in a line. Each facing a different direction and interacting with different pieces of their environment. Ruvalcaba's style provides an excellent view of how fluffy these little babies are. While Ruvalcaba's style nears photo realism, there is an added level of playfulness that sets her work apart. The bright, almost neon brush strokes that accent the scene bring out the life that exists within. She personifies the animals she creates, making her subjects seem almost fantastical. Yet the familiarity of the species she paints roots these animals in reality. Artwork Size: 10" x 20" Frame Size: 16 3/8" x 26 1/2"

About The Artist
Wisconsin artist, Cathryn Ruvalcaba creates images of classic midwestern farm scenes by zooming in on the animals that populate these fields. Her use of oil paint on gesso board offers a realist lens of these subjects. While her style nears photo realism, there is an added level of playfulness that sets her work apart. The bright, almost neon brush strokes that accent the scene bring out the life that exists within what a Wisconsin native would otherwise see as mundane. She personifies the animals she creates, making her subjects seem almost fantastical. Yet the familiarity of the species she paints roots these animals in reality. For example, she has endowed the sheep in this painting with the name "Earl". The eye contact that has been created for the subject almost convinces the viewer that Earl is himself human.
