Grace Kelly




Rear Window is one of my all-time favorite films, and this stunning actress is a big reason reason why. Born in Philadelphia, Grace Kelly would become one of the biggest movie stars in the world, and would eventually wear a crown as Princess of Monaco.

Frida Kahlo


Here's a drawing of an iconic artist known for her many magical self portraits. Frida was inspired by Mexico's rich history, culture, and natural elements, so it was an easy choice for me to depict her on this map.

I Feel Pretty


This drawing was sparked by a piece of sheet music I found at my local recycling center. No doubt, West Side Story is one of the greatest musicals of time. This portrait portrays Maria (as played by Natalie Wood in the film version), who coveys this timeless song so beautifully. Dear viewer, I hope you're feeling pretty today:-)

Edie Sedgwick


I recently read an enlightening biography of Andy Warhol (Pop, by Tony Scherman and David Dalton). One unique aspect of his vision was that he saw little difference between art galleries and supermarkets. In other words, he saw art in even the most mundane aspects of American culture. With that in mind, I attempted this portrait of his first superstar muse, Edie Sedgwick. I want to give a big thank you to my local supermarket for supplying this canvas for my drawing!

Cate Blanchett


This amazing actress hails from a suburb of Melbourne, Australia. She's so talented, her portrayal of Bob Dylan (in the film,  I'm not There) seems to embody Bob Dylan even more that Bob Dylan can embody Bob Dylan. Her name is Cate Blanchett, and she's one of the great thespians of our time.
