Raggedy Cockerel Rooster. Chinese Bird and Flower Painting. Cockerel/Rooster Paitning

Its been a long while since I did a Rooster, r a Cockerel as I think we call them. I find them difficult as their necks can be all sorts of lengths bt it needs to be right........ The paper is alot of fun to use, as you can see it sucks in the paint with a thirst. I like that. My white is maries white and used “wet“ it doesnt cover the paper very much and I dont really know how to use it otherwise on this paper. I wonder what other really opaque white I could use instead, or do I layer it or use it thick. ??? I have no idea. Maybe you just use it like chalk. He’s cute and he looks lke a roster and as far as I could, I have tried to use the Chinese method. I love painting the birds. I hope this entertained. Best wsihes always.
