Petunia

6x6 oil on canvas


My sister has an alter ego--a character that she made up to entertain the family with her improvisational shows.  This is a common expression that "Petunia" makes and I thought it would be entertaining to do my first oil painting of this silly persona juxtaposing a fine art medium with something lighthearted.  This way, I wouldn't feel badly if it turned out to be terrible.  Thankfully, I like it!  My family had a fun auction through our Facebook group and my mom won it for $17.  Does that make me an official professional?
