Miley Cyrus Brings Back the Puffy Paint Art Medium

Remember in the 80s and early 90s when making puffy paint art (on t-shirts and what have you) was a viable form of self-expression? Well, even if you don’t, Miley Cyrus is here to remind you of the glory of the formerly defunct medium.

Not only an “artist” for using her own body as a canvas for emojis, Miley has also continued to parlay her career in the arts as a puffy painter.

Adding a splash of pink here, a dash of green there, Cyrus gives us a voilà moment with her triptych of Caitlyns, which fetched $69,000 at the benefit. Could this mean Cyrus will be spurred on to continue on this fork in her career road? Let’s hope so; one gets the sense Keith Haring would want it that way.
