Bliss Gallery Opening: Wallflowers











I know I'm just making it under the wire, sorry.

I thought I'd show my Wallflower series of women. I call them 'Wallflowers' because I create them on patterned paper which, to me, resembles wallpaper.

The only one still available is the demure looking woman with the tatoos, and that's because of all the hoopla created about tonight's gallery showing. (Thanks, Annie!) Well, here they are in all their finery. Comments & critiques welcome!

  5. Dear Lolo,

    I love your work. The gentle slope of their breasts, the light in the window, the tattoo peeking out from beneath a strap, the reds against other reds. These ladies definitely aren't wallflowers in the normal sense.

    xxoo

  7. Thanks, everyone!
    I had a show at my real "Studio Lolo" a couple of years ago in California. It was all illustrations,something those 'serious artists' back there frown upon. The show was a huge hit which gave me the confidence to keep on keepin' on! I also sold three of these four ladies ;)
    Yes, Baino and everyone, please stop by my blog anytime. I love visitors!

  10. I love the tattooed lady-I have a small tat in the same spot and Garfield would sometimes peek over the top of my shirt in the middle of meetings. It was always good for a laugh.
