ROCKY the Rooster and Run Forrest run!

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.
