Ugh, it's Monday! So here is the beautiful Mary Wither by the remarkable Mary Beale, whose success as a portraitist in C17th England made her the breadwinner of the family.

Her devoted husband kept records of all her work & the praise she received 👩‍🎨💗

Thread: Anders Zorn (1860-1920) was a Swedish painter who was successful in his day, but has now gone out of fashion. A gifted society portraitist, his work raises issues over the portrayal of women in the past & how male artists see women now, let’s take a look.

"Treat your friends as you do your pictures and place them in their best light". Wise words from Jennie Jerome, later Lady Randolph Churchill, mother of Winston Churchill (and in her latter years, Mrs Cornwallis-West) born 1845, who was a portraitist's dream.

Thread: Giovanni Boldini (1842-1931) was born on this day. His was a cautionary tale of style over substance & reputation over ability. Applauded in his lifetime as a society portraitist, his work has aged badly & has the ability to make the viewer feel quite ill.

Am very proud.
I was very unmotivated that day because of a previous full body sketch that just wasn't working out but then I remembered 'Hey! I'm still good at portraits! No need to be sad!' 💕

I don’t consider myself as portraitist nor as a colorist but I think I succeeded doing something quite good here.

I’ve been asked to draw a pinup and for me, pinups mean burlesque and especially , so I tried my best to draw her.
