A pastiche of the Mad Max Fury Road film poster. At the top, in large blood splattered yellow letters it says "MAD MYFANWY FURY ROAD". It is set against a stormy sky, above a stylised desert landscape. Myfanwy, a large knitted chicken, replaces the woman, facing right wioth a large gun hanging from a chain around her. On the right the ma is replaced by the friend, a simple drawn figure, but in this case with the metal casing over their face and a chain dangling down. They point a gun to the left, over Myfanwy's head. An indistinct dead person lies on the ground by a felled motorbike.

I'm not a big action movie person, but I would watch the shit out of this #MyfanwyAndFriend

(yes, I am ignoring things and living in my own wee world at the moment, it feels sensible)

An edited version of Bacchus by Caravaggio, with Bacchus represented by a large teal and cream knitted chicken (Myfanwy). She has grapes and vine leaves in her hair and wears a draped robe. On a stone table in front is a bowl of fruit and a large carafe of red wine. She holds a shallow goblet of the same wine. The painting has been extended to a square and to her right is Friend, a simple drawn figure also with grapes and vine leaves on their head. They have their arm around Myfanwy and the other holds a pineapple hollowed out and filled with a fruity drink, with straws poking up from it. In front of them on the table is a wooden calendar marking it as 31 December. There are also two party poppers, waiting to be popped at midnight.

Happy Hogmanay to all, and a Happy New Year when it comes

The Mona Lisa, but with a large teal and cream knitted chicken (Myfanwy) instead of the woman.

Evening all. Say hello to Mona Fanwy. Or not. Up to you. We'll never know how she feels either way, enigmatic chicken that she is. #MyfanwyAndFriend

An image based on Magritte’s The Treachery of Images, but instead of a pipe it's a knitted chicken, and instead of saying "Ceci n'est pas une pipe" it says "Ceci n'est pas une poule". The colour palette is similar to the original, so a brown chicken on a textured cream backdrop.

The award winning AI generated image that has been judged to be non-copyrightable is placed on an easel. The image has been edited to add a large teal and cream knitted chicken. The chicken itself is standing beyond the easel, posing for the simple, digitally drawn figure who is standing in front of the easel with a teal tinged paint brush. Insightful commentary innit.

This is an image of the ultimate boop. It's The Creation of Adam by Michelangelo, part of the Sistine Chapel's ceiling, but God is booping a large knitted chicken on the beak. Her friend, a simple drawn figure, watches on in the group of people around God. The word BOOP! is scribbled at the top.

Well. That makes a LOT more sense. #MyfanwyAndFriend

Grant Wood's American Gothic painting but the man and woman have been replaced by a large knitted teal and cream chicken (Myfanwy) and a simple drawn figure (friend). The friend is holding the pitchfork from the original painting. Because the friend is so much shorter than the original man, the painting has been patched in all manner of ways, and although I am happy enough with it I really shouldn't have mentioned it, as it encourages people to look for the flaws. No AI though. Sod that taking all the fun out of silliness.

More from Myfanwy the Emotional Support Chicken, her friend Friend, and some classic artwork. #MyfanwyAndFriend

A pastiche of the movie poster for The Phantom Menace, where you see Anakin as a boy with his shadow on the building as Vader. In this version there is a large ball of teal wool on the ground, and the shadow on the building is the profile of Myfanwy the knitted emotional support chicken. The film title has been changed to SUPPORT CHICKENS (in the style of STAR WARS) The Myfanwy Menace (because I have a soft sport for alliteration).

Myfanwy the emotional support chicken has appeared in films too, not just classic artworks

An adaptation of Whistler's Mother, a painting where a woman sits in profile, looking left seemingly into space. She has a long black dress on, and her feet rest on a small footrest. The wall behind has a framed image, and a long curtain. In this version the woman has been replaced by a large knitted chicken, still wearing the black dress, chicken feet peeking out of the bottom. The framed photo on the wall is of a simple drawn figure, friend of Myfanwy (the knitted chicken).

Whistler's Emotional Support Chicken. That is all. Goodnight.

#MyfanwyAndFriend

It is Myfanwy, a teal and cream knitted chicken, against a black background, wearing the turban and pearl earring from Vermeer's Girls with a Pearl Earring.

So this place seems to be picking up a bit. I think I'll post some of the things I've been making over the last couple of years since I left Twitter (not all at once, obvs)

First up here's a lovely Emotional Support Chicken called Myfanwy

I present "Chicken with a Pearl Earring"
