Strutting His Stuff - colorful rooster oil painting by Debbie Grayson Lincoln


8X6 Oil on Board $125
Includes shipping and insurance US
Had some leftover paint from another project and just couldn't resist paintings this cocky fellow. Roosters, by their structure, just naturally strut when they walk. Might have something to do with keeping that tail up and waving properly in the air.
Our current rooster is by far the kindest we have ever had. I have been very careful to remain quiet around him and NOT antagonize him. In the past I have found it amusing to "box" with them as they grow - but once they get their spurs, it's not longer fun to be having to watch your back every time you walk across the yard! Out last rooster would come from 100 feet away just to get in the first lick. He has since been relocated. The current flock leader is watchful, as a rooster needs to be, but follows me for food, not sparing practice. And when he finds food, he clucks to his hens to come and get it - always looking out for them first. Right now he's missing most of his tail feathers and some body feathers off his back. I suspect he's been in a scrap - perhaps he even risked his life for the ladies. Sometimes I wish he could talk....

Object of His Affection

6 X 6 Oil on Belgian Linen $100

Is there a "strutter" in your family? We have several in our yard and the speckled rooster is a master at it. At the moment we employ 2 roosters and I suspect at least one of the 4 chicks will be one as well. Hard to tell at this point. One individual does seem to posses all the qualities, even though at 3 months of age, they all appear the same, sex-wise.
What "qualities" are good for a rooster, you might ask...and I will answer with a list:
Wariness, alertness, brassiness, tenderness (with the chicks), stubbornness, bravery, foolhardiness, cleverness and diplomacy. I will let you, dear reader, come to your own conclusion about comparing those traits to your significant other.... LOL...and why each of those qualities are valuable
This particular rooster lives in Morgan Mill and has gathered all the hens that have survived the coyotes and wayward pickup trucks and kids with sling shots. I suspect they have him to thank for helping keep them safe for this long....
