Thanks everyone. It was a fun idea to do a sort of Nancy Drew/Gothic romance novel theme with her. Ultimately I would like to do some sort of serialized strip or graphic novel-type thing with her. We'll see.
This was a quick photo from my phone; I'll need to get a better photo or find a place with an open-top, large, flat-bed scanner in order to make prints and shirts, etc. available. She's taken to wearing a pull-over hoodie and jeans for some reason; she won't tell me why. "Duck-Girl & The Haunted Mansion" - Acrylics on black canvas - 11"x14"

Go to any copy shop... our Canon copier/printer can do a little larger than 11x17 and no, it's not gallery quality but for our purposes it's more than good enough... and strangely (to me), it's more square than my "good" scanner. You'll still probably need to crop it or distort it a hair to get a perfect rectangle.
Can you bring it into photoshop and mask the edges sort of artistically so it loses the hard edge? A halftone vignette might be cool.
I guess if copiers have USB ports for input there may be a way to save the image from the copier to the USB stick. A Staples nearby has large scanners but they no longer have ones with opening tops - they're all sheet-feed ones for blueprints and stuff like that, not 3-D objects. The vignette idea seems good for that image, I tried out a rough idea of that:

Excellent! It does look blustery, so I don't blame her for rugging up.

MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Arguably one of the most talked-about works of art at this year’s Art Basel was a banana duct-taped to a wall that sold for $120,000.
It’s Maurizio Cattelan’s latest work of art. It’s called ‘The Comedian’ and it is entertaining art lovers from around the globe.
Some of those same art lovers’ conversations swirled around his 2017 golden toilet. The $6-million throne was stolen from England’s Blenheim Palace over the summer.
Art lover Weezie Chandler said, “You can do anything and once you’re established you can get away with it.”
Many believe this more ‘a-peeling’ piece represents the art world and its gaping wealth inequalities.
Others advise not to think that deep.
One art lover said, “It’s mocking the art world. That’s what Maurizio Cattelan does.”
The first two pieces according to ARTnews.com were sold for $120,000, a third is being sold for $150,000.

Uh-oh - reception tomorrow - I had to put together a postcard quickly; I'd overlooked that detail somehow. Unfortunately I do not have good photos of the newer works (and no photos of 2 of them) but most of them are in this Flickr album.
