Description

A jester’s face grins out from a dark background, orange hair wild beneath a polka-dot green cap, tiny hearts scattered pink and magenta around him like confetti. Nicole Martin paints him as the Wisest in the Kingdom, the one who can speak Truth to the King without losing his head. Meanwhile, a white daisy blooms at his collar, softening all that mischief with something gentle and unguarded. Additionally, his crossed eyes and wide grin refuse to take himself too seriously, even while carrying the kingdom’s hardest job. This is a painting about the strange courage that humor makes possible, honesty delivered with a wink instead of a blade. The hearts around him suggest that truth, told this way, is actually an act of love. What truth might you deliver more easily with a little humor of your own?
