Little Clown Boy

This piece changed my art career forever because it was something purely from my head, and it was extremely successful. Being told by art college representatives that my art was too academic and that I needed to express myself more led me to create this piece. I then made something with no plan and no regulations on materials. That something was "little clown boy," who, after only a few months of existence, was sold to a pizza shop owner in Los Angeles, California, where he will spend the rest of his days watching people eat pizza.
