A Retro ARRRRT Update!

[alivemagdolene]

I found one of my old sketchbooks (OLD old) and for fun scanned the beejeezus out of it (omitting, of course, the requisite godawful teenage poetry, brimming with the lugubrious lucidity only such a medium has). After being reassured by my love [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] that they weren't all godawful (she actually said they were wonderful but she's biased) I've opened them to the public via my art page or should you choose, my art MySpace.
A sneak preview, you ask? Cleverly assembled? WHY SURE!



That's right, if it existed in my brooding, 15/16-year-old mind and I felt the need to commit it to this particular sketchbook, it's (mostly) here!

Comments are love because I have an ongoing need for acceptance from anyone and everyone and I love you all. ♥



And a note about my moods section: Yes, all my moods are Clara Bow. Yes, the current mood, "artistic", is actually Betty Boop. Why, you ask? Betty Boop was inspired by both Helen Kane and Clara Bow, among other Jazz Age personalities. Therefore, it can be argued that Betty Boop is an artistic rendering of Clara Bow. Also, she's damn cute.

Mae Marsh! Oh, I think the photo looks like Clara--and honestly, didn't all those ingenues look interchangable early in their careers? Clearly you were channelling Clara even at that tender age (nods sagely).

'Tis no problem at all to give you a boost; you are so lovely and talented the only problem is choosing which of your many wonderful attributes to praise first.

ADDENDUM: And yes, I agree during the ingenue period, they did all look tres similiar. Saturday Night Kid which had both Harlow and Clara (who in my opinion couldn't be more dissimilar physically) had Harlow resembling Clara in more than a few shots (albeit a platinum Clara).
