This painting is of a girl (Alicia) Gerald knew when he was a little boy. Her brother Wes bullied him. He had a hard time with it because her brother bullied him, but had a crush on her. The juxtaposition of her brother bullying him and her cute snaggletooth smile was something he had to come to terms with. Needless to say, she never knew he had a crush on her.
