Have you ever had braces? Ever gagged on that slime they would stick in your mouth to make a mold and then tell you to "just breathe?" Oh man I hated having braces, I wasn't one of those invisible braces kind of kids - I was a "you're wearing headgear for months" kind of kids. But that is ok, because as my mother said after I got them off,  "You better show that $3500 smile!" And I do, every time I take a photo - it's a full mouth photo. This brace-face could only be represented with a beaver and his buck teeth. He has on his orange safety glasses like what they make you wear to harden the cement on your braces and of course he has his drool bib. The painting wouldn't be complete without a wood grain background.
