Strut Your Stuff-Rooster

Close up

Oil on 7x5 canvas panel.

This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. Lin was the hostess who supplied this great reference photo!

I picked the fancy rooster. Chickens were a very common subject to me a few years ago. It's nice to try one once more.

I've been surfing the blogs as usual. One thing that was mentioned quite a bit was using enough paint. And I came across this quote by John Singer Sargent: "No small dabs of colour - you want plenty of paint to paint with."
I have been guilty of being stingy with paint...so this time my mounds of color were a little more generous.
