ORIGINAL ‘MARILYN’ Monroe

“A Wise Girl knows her limits, a Smart Girl knows she has none.”

~ Marilyn Monroe

MARILYN, measuring 122cm x 81cm this piece was nothing but magic to create. This is my first female portrait on the large scale, and I wanted to make it epic. I toyed with who to choose but frankly, there is one woman who is known and admired globally, Marilyn Monroe.

A pleasure to paint, and the final result is so striking and beautiful. This piece is a great talking and viewing point. All your guests will admire you as they admire your choice of art.

Make sure to watch the ‘Making of’ video below, but to sum it up, it was as follows:

Chose a cool reference picture

Roughly white washed a board

Threw down some guidelines

Applied my 1st coat of Tin awesomeness

Brought the detail back through with acrylic pen

Applied the ‘Darkness’ 😵‍💫

Brought The Queen to life 😉
