Artistic Revelation

Several years ago, one of my wonderfully artistic friends painted an original piece of art to grace the large empty space above my couch.

I love this painting. The bright colors. The way that it doesn't completely match but wonderfully accents the room. And especially the fact that it was made especially for me (well, not quite me, exactly, but for one of my former roommates who decided that it could stay when she left...thanks JTho!)

Several of us have always thought, though, that parts of the painting somewhat resembled a particular part of the female body. It's been a very good-natured joke with the artist and the subject of some very entertaining conversations.

Tonight Ranae changed all that. Maybe it was just a matter of angles. As she was reclining on my couch, she suddenly exclaims, "Jane, the painting looks like a girl's face!" It took me a while to see it (partly because I couldn't get the other thing out of my mind), but then I saw it. Do you? The red on the left side is hair (or a hoody). The next orange stripe is more hair. And the next pink bump is the face, most noticeably the nose.

Ranae thinks we should name the newest "member" of the McIntyre family, so I'm taking suggestions. What do you think should be the name of the girl in the painting? Hurry and cast your votes!
