Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn while filming The Misfits. I just love that look!

And this one with a pooch, taken by Milton Greene.

Marilyn

One constant in my life has always been Marilyn. I have brought books about her read them ... then feeling bad have discarded them. Being made to feel evil cause she is a sex symbol. Or worse still, that she is an idol all consuming ... to have her in my life is to be on the way to hell.

Yet I always go back to her. I am fascinated by her. The psycology behind Norma Jean becoming Marilyn is bittersweet. This photo is by Cecil Beaton.

More Marilyn Photos, 50 Year Anniversary of Marilyn's Death

Aug 5th this year 2012 marks the 50 anniversary of the death of Marilyn. I feel there is a little bit of Marilyn in all of us.

Marilyn Monroe in 1949. They don't make swimsuits like this anymore!!

Marilyn Monroe Dressed to Swim

If you look real close you can see Marilyn has an ankle bracelet on. I wonder if she did go for a swim.

Marilyn Monroe in a Swimsuit!

This is summer! And it is time for more Marilyn photos! I find both these pictures exhilarating! I think that Marilyn looks happy!!

This poor blog was my first blog. I keep it as is but I often think it needs some real direction. I have been thinking I should make my own coloring pages, or a combination of bringing together my favorite coloring pages that I have found and my own. Of course my other blog is all, or mostly all about Lost in Space.

From an Episode of the Prisoner!

The Dance of the Dead is my 2nd favorite episode of The Prisoner. This is Denise Buckley the maid.

This I did during art class while the kids were drawing. Not easy trying to keep a child on task and to draw. This is Dr. Zachary Smith of Lost in Space. I see all the flaws. The forehead is too large, the mouth to prissy, the nose not wide enough.

Aug 5th Marilyn Monroe

I forgot to post on the anniversary of Marilyn Monroes death, August 5th. Though I have been thinking about it, for the past two weeks, I haven't had time to post. This 2nd photo, I think, shows the stronger side of Marilyn. It is hard to believe this woman could have "commited suicide".

Art With the Kids

We did watercolor at school today. This is what I did. Art for me is always fun! I did photoshop that blue sky.

Marilyn Monroe in Some Like It Hot, What a Gown!

I love this movie... Some Like It Hot! They don't make movies this good anymore!
Hmmm! This dress of Marilyn's had a little tiny heart on the tush.

Drawing

Robots and things.... hmmm!

My drawing of the Lost in Space episode, The Girl From the Green Dimension.

Lost in Space ... Third Season Penny Robinson

Part of a Lost in Space Drawing I did the other day.

A Lost in Space Drawing

Inspired by a Lost in Space episode from the first season.... one of the first 5 episodes. Dr. Zachary Smith, Penny Robinson, and Dr. Maureen Robinson are discussing the meteor shower that has just taken place. All the men folk have gone somewhere in the chariot, except for Dr. Smith.

PS: I just saw that I only posted to this blog 24 times last year.... by contrast I posted to Millie's House 84 times.... and 1000 Days Lost in Space 65 times! Am I spreading myself too thin? Part of it might be that I dilly dally around.... especially with Millie's House. I worry about what people are going to think about what I write about over there. Each one of my blogs is a different aspect of myself. I try to keep Millie's House purely catly stuff... but I keep sneaking in.
