Original artwork description:

I saw this handsome fellow in a back field strutting his stuff in Llanmadoc, Gower Peninsula, Wales..
I thought he looked a fine chap in his feathered finery.
I shot the photograph of him through a wired fence and the chicken wired fence on the other side was refracting the sunlight in such an interesting way that I painted it into the background.

Materials used:

oil on linen canvas
