March Rooster

6x6 watercolor painted today in new Master's Touch sketchbook, 80 lb paper, a quickie farm animal or bird painting. I used minimal pencil lines for this proud fowl fellow and mostly a #1 rigger/script liner brush, wet on dry. COPYRIGHT 2025 Kay Smith

Tyler Rooster

17.5x13 watercolor on gessoed matboard finished today.  Drawn with charcoal pencil from a taxidermist model I found in a Tyler, TX antique store in 2009, am just getting around to painting it.  Largely brown and burnt sienna feathers covered the fellow's body.  I photographed him as he was perched on a tall furniture piece so this angle was interesting as he looks quizzical.

White Rooster

22x15 watercolor vignette on 140 lb cold press paper, an earlier work that is now SOLD.  This white rooster was named Snowball and belonged to friends who allowed me to shoot photos of him strutting around their place.
