The Turkey who Escaped by Carole Kelly

Comments

A great pastel painting. I hope he keeps running Carole! It makes my blood boil when I think of all the turkeys bred for the festive season.

He is not out of the woods yet Carole. You have the ability to make a turkey look quite attractive.☺

Thank you Margaret & Adele. I was inspired by the poem, Talking Turkeys by Benjamin Zefiniah. It's hilarious

Glad he did, he's gorgeous!

He's magnificent, and at that size I don't think anyone would have tried to stop him escaping.

Or even, nut roast!

Thank you Carole, Sandra, Marjorie and Fiona for your amusing & positive comments. It's worth reading the poem 'Talking Turkies' to understand the painting.

Excellent painting and colours Carole. It doesn't look like he realises how lucky he is this Christmas!

Great painting Carole and so much detail. Must have taken you ages to do.
