Illustration Friday - Primitive



Hi Everyone....this week's was a tough one...I had dinosaurs in my mind...or the primitive cupcake...lol....but then it all worked out...

I think the style of Hollywood Glam years ago is primitive...you will never see everyone done up the way these ladies were always done up...

It would be unheard of for anyone to head out without looking fab!

My Series highlights these women and is inspired by that Glam...

from Ginger Rogers, Bette Davis, Marilyn Monroe to Audrey Hepburn ......

Have a wonderful Friday!
Cheers,
Diana

they look really nice all together! I bet they would be great in a movie room hung as a trio!

Great idea for primitive. I think my wife has some that thought process; she likes to look fab most all the time. Nice work.

I like hair that likes to be brushed, not doos that don't like to be messed with, but that is just me.

oh and having a nice bon fire is a must for me too...

I hope not too big, I have a love seat and fireplace outside that I enjoy, but I make small fires, not big polluting ones.

Have a great day.

In that case I wish we stayed primitive. I saw the ugliest looking woman at the grovcery store last week. She looked horrible in her pajamas. Oh what have come to? People get out bed and head out the door...I love your primitive style.

They are beautiful. I completely agree with you, women were absolutely elegant those days. I'm a sucker for 1940's fashions!
