Painting Roosters–November 20, 2013
Using images of male chickens, called roosters, from Storey’s Illustrated Guide to Poultry Breeds by Carol Ekarius, each child chose one to draw and paint with watercolors. The roosters picked were: a Bantam Brown Red Cochin, a White-Faced Spanish, an Orpington, a Golden Penciled Hamburg, a Delaware, a Rosecomb, a blue-lace red Wyandotte hen (she slipped in), a Plymouth Rock and Anna painted a Holland.
