Author's Note
Panel 1
Stick 1: So what happened to your painting?
I sent it to a gallery.
Panel 2
Stick 1: You submitted the painting of a black bean on a blank canvas to a fine art gallery?
Panel 3
Stick 2: What’s wrong with that?
If my art instructor says that it’s a great example of impressionistic surrealism, who am I to argue?
