Coq au Vain
by Fay Picardi

Here he is, the rooster that incorporates three challenges; the gold, the crazy color and the chicken one. Just check out the strut, not to mention the eye, and you will see why I have called him the Coq au Vain. The collage looks simple, but paraphrasing Dolly Parton, "It takes a lot of time to look this easy." 
(This is a repost. The one posted with the rest of the challenges was somehow erased.)

    I really love this Fay. I especially like the way you use your papers, not too many small pieces. You can really enjoy the patterns and colors.
