#750 "Hen with a Little Treasure"



I created this new wall mount for my kitchen.  While the rooster gets all the glory - the hen 
does all the work.   I have had poultry for many years and know the value of fresh laid eggs.

#110 In the studio: Drawing con't . . .












Drawing forces careful observation causing the artist to understand and know the creature.

Shown below is a recent oil painting . . .  I approached it as a drawing using brush and pigment.

#109 In the studio: Drawing con't . . .


A sculptor knows that drawing strengthens observation skills. 
Understanding the subject enables the artist to see, draw and model the animal.




Learning to draw is really a matter of 
learning to see - to see correctly - and
that means a good deal more than merely 
looking with the eyes.
                                  - Kimon Nicolaides

#37 Remarque: "Country Morning"

Over the years we've had several different breeds of roosters.  The current king of the coop is a Cochin Bantam.  This little bird has feathers that cover his tarsus (leg/foot area) and he definitely has the small fowl syndrome.  The hens are huge in size compared to him but he's oblivious and rules the roost.

Country Morning is a study from life.

#9 Remarque: "Old Red"

Old Red is a portrait of our Rhode Island Red rooster that I spoke about yesterday.  I've had chickens for years and can't imagine a world without this arrogant, common bird:  No eggs benedict with corn fed yellow orange yolks and no announcement at daybreak of the rising sun.
