What's In a Name?


What should I call this?, originally uploaded by Jennifer Mullin.

I just finished up this ACEO and I'm struggling to title it. I need your help.

I've done dozens of these tiny florals, and named many of them "Floral Improv # " I've grown tired of that naming system and started picking out titles from bits of magazine text I found on my desk while making these pieces.

I didn't want to add any text to this one, it looks fine on its own. So, what do I name it? The color and use of stripes lend this piece a playful, almost "Suessical" or "Wonka- like" quality. The petals themselves remind me of those candy corns (worst tasting candy ever !)

So, I turn to you my bloggies. Suggestions?

    Fun! Love the pink and black. Okay, how about:

    Wee Whimsey
    Flights of Fancy
    I Dream in Color
    Lil' Perky Pansy
    Pretty in Pink
    Perfectly Posed

    LOL. I could probably keep going...

    Your style is really cool!

    It kind of looks like the North Pole to me! Like with the pole in the background and the little snowflakes/sparkles. How about: Arctic Blooms, Snow Petals, Santa's Garden?
