Marilyn Monroe Pop Art

Marilyn Monroe Pop Art

“Electric Blue”

Marilyn Monroe pop art seemed to be everywhere on the internet in the mid noughties and set out to try and create something different. I clearly recall painting this marilyn Monroe “pop art” canvas at the end of 2006 and being absolutely terrified as it took some confident initial strokes on the canvas.

I am actually quite fond of this painting. It is quite basic and stripped back but there is just something about it like several of my earlier canvases, especially of Marilyn Monroe which made it really quite a high impact piec eof artwork when viewed in the flesh.

Marilyn’s pout was something else and I think that when many people look at the glamour of Marilyn Monroe, they forget the sadness that was in her life. Marilyn was all about glamour and this painting is a celebration of that.
