A Diva's Best Side

I love at lot of the really exaggerated poses I've seen models do over the years. The best poses are from years ago. 


I'm thinking 50's - 70's era. The models always seemed to truly know how to emphasize form, mood and fit.


And they always had a 'best side.'  
Although from what I've seen . . .

. . . ANY side of a diva is her BEST side!

The Moral of the Story

The moral of the story, "The Wizard of Oz", is simple:  

There's no place like home.

Whatever . . . 

Dreams really do come true.

Seriously? . . .

No . . .  

Maybe when I was like nine years-old.


Attention Oprah Winfrey generation!

I believe the real moral of the story, "The Wizard of Oz", isn't that deep.

The moral is . . . 

It's OK to grab a perfectly good pair of fabulous red pumps off a dead witch with a house on top of her.

It's not stealing.

It's recycling!











Cigarettes and Furs

Sophistication. 


That's one of the words I associate with divas. And when it comes to images, there are many. 

One image is of some super rich gal, circa 1950's, draped in fur. She has a matching hat. There's a cigarette in one hand and an equally glamorous pooch either carried or on a leash in the other.

Today that reality would be wrong on a couple of levels. Thankfully, no animals nor lungs were harmed in my illustration.  ;-)

Empty

Half full?


Optimistic.


Half empty?


Pessimistic.


Empty?


Houston.  WE HAVE A PROBLEM!
