Flim Flam - A Fancy Flamingo

Flim·flam: /ˈflimˌflam/ — nonsensical or insincere talk.

"I suppose that you suspect me of pseudointellectual flimflam."

I suppose you suspect this painting of a flamingo is a bit of a flimflam.

Case in point: He's smooth in the colors he's showing. He's in front of some fancy wallpaper. He's an example of classic portraiture... but he's a flamingo.

You've made your case. You're right.

I wanted to put him in an uncommon situation. He's in a fancy home with fancy wallpaper, almost blending in like he belongs there. And honestly, who am I to tell a flamingo where he can and can’t live?
