Retro Rooster
10 x 14.75 mixed media (watercolor, acrylics, newspaper, napkins, catalog pages,
ink) I composed over a failed geranium watercolor. The rooster head and neck
were from a former failed barnyard painting with him and 2 hens that did not
quite work. The hens I cut out also and adhered to an old shack scene called
"Chicken Ranch", that should still be on this blog. His purple legs just kill
me; feathers in front are from newspaper photos of old wood. It is a
conglomeration of elements with a whole lot of country style and was fun to
make. This is a repeat post from 2011 as I don't have today's work photographed or the guest artist valentines ready.
