My Funny Little Sister

My Funny Litter Sister by Octavia Li  (10 y/o) - painted in acrylic on a 12''x16'' canvas; Dec 2025, Auckland, New Zealand 

My little sunshine is a portrait of my little sister Ophelia. She always wears bright clothes so I chose strong, lively and bright colors. It shows off her personality and makes her appearance more like herself. The background color is light purple so it gives the bright colors more space. It actually turned out pretty good. Her bow is lopsided, her hair is messy and her clothes are bright. The colorful dots in the background fit right in place like a puzzle. She has a great sense of humor, which makes everyone laugh. Her jokes are like the dots, surrounding her, ready to be said aloud. Ophelia is a sunshine that shoots through the dark, grey clouds.
