There are a lot of themes that run through the stock gallery – many people have similar ideas but they pull them off in different ways. In this series of newsletters we will look at similar ideas but different outcomes.

Artist's Comments
The lovely Marilyn Monroe graces my gallery again. She wore this purple gown in the movie, How To Marry a Millionaire.
I searched high and low for a photo of her in this dress. This was the most lovely, but the size of the photo was smaller than I would have liked. After much debate (with myself), I finally decided to draw it. I am glad I did. I love her sexy trademark smile, but it also has that naughty sweetness. Actually the smile gave me a big headache, because half of her mouth was in black dark shadow. Anyway, I won't tell you how much time I struggled with that smile. In the end, I am very pleased with it!
I finished this drawing just in time! I will start my new job tomorrow at CDIA school! I am so excited.
I will continue to draw, of course. There are just too many gorgeous reference photos out there calling out to me.

Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.

Another gorgeous work from you May. You did everything perfectly especially on the fabric and that glittering strap of her dress and her silky hair. I love her pose here and can understand perfectly why you chose it. I'll choose the pose I love over the picture quality any days.

Go up to the girl of your dreams, give her a single rose and say, "I just wanted to show this rose what true beauty is."
Good luck with the new job!
