Chicken by Peter Tigler — Original Painting

Artist: Peter Tigler
Title: Chicken, 2026
Medium: Oil & Acrylic on masonite
Dimensions: 17 h × 20 w inches

This original chicken painting captures a barred black-and-white chicken with a strong sense of character and presence. Peter Tigler uses careful observation to render the bird’s distinctive markings while allowing the expressive qualities of the painted surface to remain visible.

The subject is set against a warm, earthy ground layered with paint splatter, drips, and residual studio marks. Visible brushwork and variations in texture create a dynamic contrast with the more defined figure, making the artist’s process and material choices an integral part of the composition.

A piece of contemporary animal art that feels tactile, direct, and expressive. Layers of paint, texture, and gestural marks emerge on close inspection, giving this one-of-a-kind chicken artwork a sense of depth and immediacy.

Ideal for collectors seeking chicken wall art, contemporary animal portraiture, or modern farmyard artwork that balances representational detail with expressive abstraction. A distinctive statement piece for modern, rustic, eclectic, or gallery-style interiors.
