I have wanted to paint a close up of a Rooster for a while.
Many of my friends have chickens and I have taken countless photos of them.
So why not now!
I started this painting, one night,
painting for my current show,
it was
much too late, and it was not working out very well…
so I decided to bag it, I took the unfinished painting
up to my storage closet and, because I could not even bear to look at it,
I turned it facing the wall!
The next day I pulled it out and realized that it was on the right track.
I worked on it for the rest of the day.
It then became one of my favorite paintings I have ever done.
funny how it goes.

This one NEVER fails to bring a smile to my face.
I just love this chicken, he’s sassy and he has got spunk!
And as they say…He is getting….
“Getting the Hell out of Dodge!”
