This bird is so slicked up in his colorful best, how could any hen in her right mind resist?

^{Jude 1:4} For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

Something about ducks always seem happy and many times humorous.
I liked how these guys were gathered around eyeballing the main duck. They were either admiring him or were about to boot him from the flock for some ducky infraction.

Pondering Porker-Pig

This is my contribution to this week's The Paint your Pig Challenge posted by Carol Marine .
This weeks’ challenge was very simple. Paint a pig. Any pig

I found a pig painting I posted on my blog clear back in Oct, 2006. Check it out here.
I was struck by this old '06 painting! I thought, "This is better than what I'm painting today!"
Mixed emotions. On the up side, I was doing work then that I like even more today, with the passage of time. On the down side, I somehow feel like I've been regressing backwards instead of progressing.
At this moment, I feel like going back over my old paintings and injecting some of that approach into my present work....That's what I attempted to do with this new porker.

Working within the square format was something different for me.

This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. The hostess, Kay, provided great photos to work from.

For the thick strokes, I loosely mixed paint (not over mixed) on the palette. Then I would pick it up on my palette knife. Then pick paint up from the knife with a scoop of the brush. And lastly, apply it in one stroke. This seemed to give some nice unexpected blends and broken color.

Roosters/chickens were really high on my list a few years ago...it's good to revisit them again. The image for this painting was supplied by Kay for the WDE at Wet Canvas.

Happy Father's Day!!

White Rooster

Oil on 7x5 archival canvas panel.

I quite frequently set specific goals for myself before beginning a painting. My goals for this rooster were: use varied, close value, broken color....Use plenty of paint( gobs)....use the painting knife for a larger percent of the painting than I normally do (stay away from the brush as much as possible thus avoiding getting caught up in unnecessary detail)....mix much of the colors directly on the panel.

To these ends I feel I was fairly successful. Right now I'm happy with it....gotta look it over a little while.

Ruffled Rooster

I loved this alarm clock with the ruffled feathers. Awhile back it seemed about all I painted was roosters. I somehow got away from it ...until I saw the great photo! It was graciously supplied by Li for the WDE at the Wet Canvas. This is oil on 7x5 archival canvas panel. Much of the visible red background is the acrylic tone which is applied first

Colorful Cow

Oil on 5x7 archival canvas panel.
This painting was actually posted a few months ago. It was rather on the dark side, and I believe for that reason it didn't receive any bids on eBay. So, in the interest of science (Heh), I have repainted the bovine. I added more bright colors plus lighter values. Hope this time I get to stick a shipping label on her butt and ship her out!
So now, it's a portrait of a cow set against a gorgeous sunset skyline.. I really enjoyed doing this one! The oils were applied thickly in selected areas and turned out really well in the fur texture!Hope you enjoy!!
