Ruler of the Barnyard

"Ruler of the Barnyard"
16x20 oil on canvas

I found this fellow at Shakertown in the same barnyard as the turkey I pictured HERE. I'm not sure who actually ruled the roost since the turkey was much larger, but this rooster appeared to be the boss! But then, so did that turkey! I haven't painted the turkey yet: I'm not sure I'd want to look at his portrait, at least not at Thanksgiving time. Besides, I think roosters are handsome and more regal.

Happy Thanksgiving!
