Introducing "Minnie Pearl," the first piece in my new "Character Sketch" Series! This captivating 20x20" mixed media collage pays homage to the beloved stage character portrayed by comedian Sarah Colley, blending humor and charm in a delightful tribute.
This texture-rich piece is crafted on a wood panel wrapped with plaid burlap and chicken wire, providing a rustic, nostalgic backdrop. The scene is a playful, pin-up style rendering of Minnie Pearl, set in the fictional town of "Grinders Switch". Minnie is depicted watering her tomato plant, with vintage coupons dangling from the leaves while a rooster looks on, comfortably perched on a rocking chair, creating a gentle satire of rural southern "hillbilly" culture.
Enhancing the charm of this piece, a prize-winning wreath hangs from the sky with a sign that reads "Bless All Y'all," adding a heartfelt and humorous touch to the scene. The artwork is further adorned with synthetic florals, vintage coupons, and two miniature versions of Pearl's signature floral hats, complete with price tags.
