I guess with today's post it's officially rooster/chicken week! This guy might look familiar...I took several pictures of this guy inside his dark barn, so I know I've painted and posted him before. Backlighting is never easy...it makes the features disappear. What to name this guy? Hmmmm. anyone?

Very beautifully done.The painting is bright inspite of the dark tones of the rooster!
ReplyDeleteI really appreciate how you give a personality to each of the chickens/roosters you paint! Cannot tell from your painting that you didn't have a good reference pic -goes to show how well you have mastered your art.
ReplyDeleteMaybe call him Hank. Beautifully rendered!
ReplyDeleteBacklighting is a bit tricky but this came out great.
ReplyDeleteThe grasses beyond this fellow are sublime, Annelein. Gorgeous portrait of a find and cocky fellow!
