I decided to treat the background a little differently with this tough guy. I used lots of prussian blue and some payne's gray and applied it really wet. It makes for a more moody piece. Maybe that's why I've come up with the title of "Fierce".
I just love roosters and have probably told you so and this one is really beautiful. Do you have these birds live or do you work off photos? peace n abundance, CheyAnne http://cheyannesexton.etsy.com
Thanks! I actually find myself at various farms taking tons of pictures...no live birds within my city limits...well maybe chickens, but certainly not loud roosters!
This is great....love his look, the background...the colors....
ReplyDeletewonderful!
I like him and the backgound is perfect for him.

It certainly is a nice background to push him forward with his warm, fierce self. I think the attitude is the key to his fierceness. Love this guy!
