Rohlfs wanted to paint her, but she chickened out. She felt it was some cockamamie scam!

What he got for this painting certainly didn’t feather his nest; it left him feeling down.

This painting is simply absurd/it’s unflattering to either bird/ the barnyard’s a mess/ the hen’s in distress/and the rooster is tragically blurred.

Well, Herr Rohlfs, I guess TECHNICALLY it’s a nude, but you should probably pluck it first..

I cannot believe my luck !/ A sweet spot I may have struck../ am I the first one/ who has written a pun/ including the suggestive term “pluck” ?

After working on perspective (remember the Russians at table with one underneath?) the art teacher decided to emphasize form, shape and realism.

Nobody had the heart to tell the artist that he was forgetting to wear his glasses.
