Still hesitate to read this all the way through. This reminds me of the macabre story by Roald Dahl “Pig” (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig_%28short_story%29).

I couldn't google any decent pictures, so I had to teach myself bird anatomy to get the wings and feather layout somewhat correct. I even attempted to track down feet anatomy, which was pointless for how small the feet were drawn. Library research was not on my mind when I said, "sure I can draw you a tattoo," but I welcomed the challenge. Tara's rooster looks amazing. She must have a lot of patience to outline so many feathers as she did, and a lot of guts. I wonder if she gets aggravated scratching out so many lines, or if she finds it cathartic. Maybe both?

Then I got hungry for a fucking orange for some reason. Made me think of the Karl Pilkington anecdote about the Pig-Lady Manchester Square. Then I got hungry for a fucking orange for some reason.

What a reward it was though, completing the wings. Finding the appropriate anatomical references was a challenge...went through many many archive images of fried chicken. It’s a meditative thing.
