starlets make the best models!


I like to use old Hollywood pics for drawing and painting practice since the lighting is usually really good. Before the days of all flash photography, there was a lot a great dramatic lighting in photos and on the screen. Oh, yeah and the women were are stunning... that helps..

Hard to top Grace Kelly for elegance, beauty or talent.

I wish she had done a few more films before heading off to Monaco for the life of a Princess and mother.
