Sunday Postcard - Glamour Girls



My Glamour "Girl" is Dame Edna Everage, famous Australian entertainer. Edna is really Barry Humphries. People who go to Edna's shows do so at their peril.

Edna's face was Googled. The body is a Suzee Que Flickr free-to-use image (coloured from original black and white). The background is by Madame Mim of Catscrap and the seat by Christina Renee Designs. Folded ribbon by Tangie Baxter.

  2. Marie, did I imagine this, or was your picture originally the woman? I was going to catch up on looking/commenting tomorrow, but I was here earlier and the picture was the same as it is now, but that head wasn't on it, and your write up was slightly different. Am I dreaming? Either way, your artwork is fantastic!

  15. Edna could only wish for legs like that, though with her famous high opinion of herself I'm sure she thinks she has. Marie your colouring is mind blowing. Kudos my friend.
