Original Party Animal Oil Painting

Agnes the Ostrich hosts a monthly book club. The chairs form a circle and the polka dotted party hat goes on. She picks one passage to read aloud. Not the obvious one. The one that made her feathers lift the first time through. She reads it slowly, and the room falls quiet.

Literary debates are settled over snickerdoodles. Cookie crumbs collect on open pages. Someone always argues for the villain. Agnes lets it play out. By the time the last page is turned, she is already planning the next selection.

I painted Agnes with confident, direct brushstrokes that mirror her straightforward approach to both literature and life. The rich colors bring out her vibrant personality and natural warmth.
