HI Brenda, This was a lot of fun to view! Love your colorful chickens and cute chicks. Nice placement of all the chickens. I think this shows that you don't have to have a lot to make an interesting image. Simple and sweet! I enjoyed! Good Luck in the Contest!

Brenda,
A beautiful & colourful watercolour painting of the strutting Cockerel showing off his colourful plumage, two hens & four newly hatched chicks & three red daisy like flowers. Created by your artist's eye for composition very skilful brushwork beautiful choice & application of your colours in bringing this scene to life on your canvas. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Charlotte Morse
I like this watercolour very much indeed Brenda! You've drawn them all very well.
I love the dark rich tones you've achieved by using (I presume?) a fairly dry brush.
You've captured the typical chicken stances so well, and the chicks are adorable!
Very good luck in the contest!

Thank you for your review and high marking. I did wet on wet within the shapes as a base together as a grounding then detailing layers on top. The brush was not so dry but well saturated in colour. I used a rigger for detailing ..

You're very welcome, and thanks for explaining how it was all done!

I am not so surprised as they have reptilian type feet ... I am a fan of Real (trad art) too. I actually avoid reviews that aren't and I am not a dinosaur I embrace technology but with art it's not a level playing field. Great re iew thank you Sean

I won't have anything to do with this 'digital art' or 'AI Generated' nonsense.I DRAW with my fingers using pencils and pens.I DON'T construct 'picrures' using fancy software progtams.

This is for sure a colorful painting and you have pictured this Cockerel and his family so well. I especially like that you have kept the background neutral, because this makes them stand out so well.
I also like the boldness of the brush strokes, and it is amazing how well you have brought out fine textures since this is done in water colors. The colors are crisp and clear.
The format and framing is very good, and all the birds and the flowers are well placed on the canvas. I think this is a great looking and well done painting Brenda, and I wish you luck with the contest.

Mr Cockerel and his family are a perfect part of your Nursery Collection. The colorful rendition of these Chickens full of personality, has been created very well. As always, I have enjoyed your artwork and skill! I can see in my minds eye, many ideas to add to this collection. Very nicely done! Love it!

Thank you so much for your great review. And especially that high marking it made my day. I can tell you yes, I have ideas for the nursery I project but struggle to keep them simple

A very funny title which suits this piece perfectly. Your composition shades and tones are very well done and executed. I particularly love your little chicks.
