        10 x 14.75 mixed media collage (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 two hens that did not quite work. 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 :lol:

                    What I enjoy is that the picture isn’t uptight. The rooster is..but the rest isn’t; an interplay which is entertaining. The newspaper works incredibly successfully…. Flurry and flutter….lots of cackling, just like the news.

                    Overall as a piece it works in colour composition and wonderful line quality.

                    As long as there is light, I will paint it.
