Polka-dot Puffs

Title: "Polka-dot Puffs"
Size: 12x12in

This painting was inspired by the artwork in comic books. I wanted the smoke to look very exaggerated and to make the background look like a comic book print I painted pink dots on top of the red. I am also a huge fan of everything old fashioned and therefore I had the woman smoking out of a cigarette pipe, and painted her hair to make it look like she has pin curls. I used acrylic paint for the whole thing.
Like all of my artwork, this is a one-of-a-kind original. The edges are painted black so there is no need to frame this piece, it can be hung as is.
