Framed Sunflowers
Posted: August 15, 2013 Filed under: Art Leave a commentPros of keeping your work at your parents house:
You don’t pay for a storage unit
24/7 access
It’s safe
It’s familiar
You usually get invited to stay for dinner when dropping off work
Cons:
Sometimes people go through your work and then they magically appear on a wall somewhere.
With that being said, here are the sunflowers I initially hated. To my mothers credit, they do look nice framed. I still see them glaring at me with their skinny yellow petals and dark furry eyes: “go ahead artist- paint us already!”
