Peter Denies Jesus

To be completely honest, I was really excited to paint a rooster. Suggesting the multi-layers of color in their feathers challenged me. I believe I was successful, especially with the tail and the feathers around the chest and stomach. . The figure in the background is the image of Peter in anguish. The sky and ground, dull and dingy, highlight the bright plumage of the rooster even more, as well as describing the remorse in Peter.

  1. "ANGUISH" had to be done. I really love this painting; check out those tail feathers. That rooster is going around singing " shake your tail feathers, shake your tail feathers hey hey"
