Artist Commentary:

"The roosters were inspired by the fun I thought I would have, creating colorful tail feathers from discarded wallpaper books. Roosters offer such an array of color, and feathers off such wonderful 'torn paper' types of shapes, it was a marriage made in collage heaven!  With the cows, I have fun hiding nursery rhymes within the white areas that I build up from different sizes and styles of text from old book pages. My work is inspired by potential collage materials; the rooster pieces inspired the cows, the agricultural theme inspired the frame molding of old weathered barn wood, which are hand made in Kentucky."
