The joke, not the armour

She has a face that photographs as arrogant and a personality that is the exact opposite of that.

This is the canvas where I caught the joke instead of the armour. I did not decide to. It happened somewhere in the second week and I noticed afterwards.

What do you do with it?

Inspired by a photograph of Kayleigh Swenson (@vikingbarbie). One of four canvases of Kayleigh. What the painting makes of it is my doing, not hers. Part of Painted Idols.

Buying is the easy part

The photograph this came from was made to be forgotten. This canvas was not. It took weeks, and it will hang on a wall for years.

Ordering takes a minute. Deciding where it goes is the part that takes nerve, because everyone who walks into that room will see it and decide something about you. That is the real decision, and it is yours. The ones who own these stop noticing the reaction after about a month, and never stop noticing the painting. Hang it anyway.

There is one of this canvas and there will never be a second. If you have read this far, you are already picturing the wall.

Kayleigh (Tattoos) in a room: an impression, not a measurement

In a room

An impression of Kayleigh (Tattoos) in a room. The room is imagined; the canvas is the real work. It is not a measurement: the size is in the details above.
