BREAKING NEWS IN THE ART WORLD!

The Metroplotnikan Museum of Art (MMOA) has announced its first acquistion, after three-plus years of negotiations with the artist Isabella Van Bellybone.



The painting, entitled "Daddy, Mommy, Me and Mischief" is representative of the Brooklyn Minimalist School. The artist, who received a grant (a Mr. Softee cone) from her grandfather the last time he saw her, is currently working on an entire series, tentatively entitled "More Cool Stuff."

We see Daddy on the left, with a curiously bald head; Mommy next, with what one long sideburn but could simply be the dreadlocks she doesn't have any more; and the artist herself, whose brain is shown to be on the same level with her parents except her legs aren't as long. Oh, and Mommy's shoes.

Mischief Puppy sits to the side, a wistful look upon his face, or perhaps he's just hungry.

Here, in closeup, we can observe Ms. Bellybone's brilliant use of line, color, theme, visualization and attention to detail.



MMOA acquired this new work only last night and is currently deciding whether construction of a new wing will be necessary to house the collection, or perhaps a refrigerator with a larger display area. Purchase price has not been disclosed.
