Finishing a painting in one session is difficult! Here is a quick little rooster I did yesterday to post for the Thirty Paintings in Thirty Days challenge at Leslie Saeta's blog. I'm not exactly satisfied with it, and I know I'll end up coming back to touch it up... but for now, it's a painting that was done in one day... Whew!

A couple of years ago, I painted the rooster below. I like it much better, but I don't remember how much time I spent on it. The strokes are bold and free; maybe that's a technique I need to revisit. It's certainly a way to move a painting toward completion quickly.

I hope you'll visit Leslie's blog to check out some of the other participating artists. I'm happy that I persuaded a painting friend to join in. You can see Jo's painting of her cute little dog, Wolf Man HERE. While you're visiting her website, check out the wonderful pencil and ink drawings too!
Beautiful, bold colors in this fine rooster! Can't wait to see what you do next.
