Patience is the companion of wisdom. ~St. Augustine I named this piece "Patience" because it makes me think of how much patience this guy must have every morning, waiting for the sun to come up. In the mornings, I know that I have no patience at all....but even though he is a chicken, he seems quite dignified. I used a somewhat more dramatic color scheme on this than what I usually use, but I wanted to create a more dramatic feeling, for the new beginning that each day brings us.
