The topic for the March ATC swap at Wishful Thinking in Nashville, Indiana is "Chickens." I found a chicken image I liked from Dear End. Then I ordered PET stickers from Amazon for the background. I didn't think it through when I ordered those stickers or maybe I thought it through too much. I was thinking I could layer the stickers and make a really detailed background, but they didn't layer well and they were super shiny and left very pronounced edges. So, I didn't layer them and I dabbed (to make a texture that I hoped would help conceal the edges while muting the shine) clear gesso on the background. This is how they turned out; still with issues, but not as bad as at first:
