And The Winner Is

And the Winner Is

It’s that time of the year; Award Season has begun. Over the years, I have painted my share of Little Girls that have been inspired by the fashions worn during award seasons. For this past Golden Globes, I was hoping to have a beautiful dress worn by Natalie Portman, but somehow the Viktor and Rolf dress was a bit silly. Normally this would inspire me, but as of yet nothing has transpired. Instead, I painted Angelina Jolie in her Atelier Versace dress. The piece here is titled, “Jolie Green.” I normally do not use a lot of green in my painting, but I kept think of the Jolly Green Giant and her giant lips, thus the title.

I am almost finished with my Little Girl of Audrey as Sabrina. A few weeks ago while watching Black Swan, I kept thinking of Audrey Hepburn; I thought it was a role she would have played. I should be done with the piece tomorrow. Tomorrow, I will spend the day painting and working on my Black Swan inspired Little Girls of Natalie Portman as well as continuing on Ballerina on Death’s Head.

As for the Academy Awards next month, I’ll keep my fingers crossed and wish for some amazing gowns.

Have a most beautiful weekend ahead!
