Glamour



















I found my inspiration in an old Life magazine. Don't know if I captured the young Liz or not.......

Very nice. Yes, I see Ms. Liz there. And you also have an almost Warhol thing going on. Peace.

oh yes, you sure did! I knew it was her immediately! You did this pretty quickly too. I am terrible at portraits and you did such a beautiful job! I love the necklace too. It's the little touches, don't you think? Love this Janet!!!

I, too, thought of Andy Warhol when I saw your drawing.

Nice representation of Ms. Taylor!

Keep Creating!

It also looks very Shirley Temple to me. Nice work.

I saw your drawing earlier today, I’ve been on your blog a couple of times and I really like what you do. Thanks for dropping by my blog earlier on!

Kathleen is right, Liz Taylor and Marilyn are also two of my favorite glamour icons.

I'll say it again...you should own your own art studio!! You'd be fabulous at it. You could even have kids art classes, I'd be willing to bet you'd make TONS of money!!!
Sorry I haven't commented to your posts for a while. Been real busy, but I have been reading them.
Talk to you soon!
Love you,
Sis

Oh, that's not for me!...and I guess every artist on here would do great if everyone liked our art as much as our family members! :)

I knew who she was immediately. I love the repetition thing. Nice work.

Nice sepia-ish tone here. I think you captured Ms. Taylor quite nicely, and I love the movement this piece has. Great job on that pretty necklace, too!

Looks very good, Janet!
Love the way you've overlaid the pictures.

I love the effect, as if the drawing was "taken" through a "fly-eye lens." Hee hee
