30 Day Challenge - Day 24 - Poultry Farm

Yesterday our weather included drizzle for much of the day, but I wanted to paint an outdoor scene. I went to a poultry farm not far from me. You can select your own fresh poultry there. They have several huge roosters, one in front along the street, and one in the back. When I got there I parked next to several cars with a good view of the rooster, but I can't tell you how many people parked right in front of the rooster while I was there, blocking my view. lol It wasn't like they were anywhere near the shop entrance parking there! Anyway the rooster is my Day 24 gouache painting subject for the "30 Paintings in 30 Days" Challenge.

  2. I don’t like chickens, but like paintings of chickens! I took some photos yesterday to work with. This is such a colorful sketch. Love it!
    It is a bit irritating with the folks that park where you wouldn’t think they would. I’m smiling.

    1. Thanks. I like painting chickens and roosters and am always on the lookout for unusual ones. Yes, other people can be so rude when you want to sketch...sometimes even when they know you are sketching.
