Description

I've been working on this piece for a while, painting her fur coat and her hair. MARILYN MONROE. Born Norma Jeane Baker June 1, 1926(1926-06-01) Los Angeles, California, U.S. Died August 5, 1962 (aged 36) Brentwood, Los Angeles, California, U.S. She would have been 83 on the 1st June this year. A very sad ending for a beautiful and often misunderstood woman. Her beauty will never suffer the ravages of time! Luv Ya! Sylvia PS...I just noticed this is my 300th upload!

Great composition, and nice soft rnder, Sylvia. Great work! Warm regards ( in two meanings of the words. It's 24C or so outside and dry with it. Yes I know it is unseasonal for Scotland in summer, but I'm not complaining ;o) ), John

OMG, you really captured her! As we came to know later, there was far more to her than her carefully fabricated "bimbo" image. Very nice tribute to a wonderful lady.
