Red Ears and Cheek

2017

Acrylic on canvas

A painting of a person’s head with a black background. Face is shown to be looking toward you. On top of the head where hair would be, are four striped cones in alternating colors and shades of blue/yellow, brown/blue, white/blue. The cones are slightly bent on tops. On the ends of the cones are four- or five- petals sketched out in white. On the top left corner, close to one of the cones, is a moon. Four circles in various sizes line up with the ears (two on each side).
