🐓 Why a Rooster?
This painting is close to my heart. I once rescued a rooster, named him Scott. He was beautiful, bold, and full of personality. He inspired me to start painting roosters, and this course is a little tribute to him. I still miss him and hope he’s living his best life across the bridge. ❤️
