Shame is a Funny Thing

Shame is a Funny Thing · 3:4

Surreal portrait of a figure with teal-streaked curls, face consumed by pink daisies, roses, and cream peonies, one enormous green eye with dramatic lashes peering through petals, red lips barely visible, flower stems crossing in front, against a teal background. 'Digital Edition' badge upper left. Signed Magpie 24.

One enormous eye peers through a wall of pink roses and dahlias, the rest of the face swallowed by petals. Teal-streaked blonde curls frame freckled skin and a coral mouth barely visible beneath the blossoms. She's hiding in plain sight, dressed in so much beauty it becomes its own disappearance. A surreal big eyed portrait where the flowers aren't decoration, they're armor. Pinks, corals, and teals against a moody teal background.

Made from a poem.
