Art by Nellie


I never had the chance to take the "Fine Arts 101" course that everyone seemed to take in college.  Perhaps some reader can suggest for me which famous artist my young neighbor is channeling (watercolor on printer paper, 2020).

Updated to add Nellie's latest creation (magic marker on notebook paper, 2020):


Updated once again with a photo of her home gallery:

  3. This is a very proficiently made piece of art. It's in the tradition of the pop art movement. You should try to buy it from Nellie. Seriously!
