Rooster Run ©


A fun project! A combination of watercolor and pastel were used for texture, in addition to a special ingredient to create a bubbly effect near the bottom of this painting.  Can you guess?  You can email me at lindarubens@hotmail.com  if you think you know what the secret ingredient is or wait until you see my next post for the answer. We needed to be open minded especially when we heard that we were going to paint on sandpaper! Thank you, Frankie Johnson, for  exposing us to varieties of painting techniques. I was trying to look as confident as this rooster looked while I was painting him. His expression  and Frankie's encouragement kept me going.
