"Peculiar" (1991) is an acrylic painting on canvas housed in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. This painting employs bold colors of yellow and blue to depict the girl. However, the background consists of various shades of blue, primarily lighter pastel tones. The girl occupies a significant portion of the blank space, featuring a large, expressive face. Her sad eyebrows and large eyes add to the expressiveness, drawing more attention to her face.
