Except maybe all those gals on VH1. But I’m sure glad painter / mixed media artist Sarah Collier took the path she did, even if charm school wasn’t part of it. Her creations wield such glamour and vintage charm, I love them all.

The colors pop, the fifties and sixties script gives them a depth and focus that makes each one more than just a pretty work of art. Don’t get me wrong, they’re definitely pretty, but they’ve got so much beyond that too! Just look and see what I mean . . . from Joe Strummer of The Clash to bathing beauties, I could find a special place in my home for each one.
