Information about this drawing ("Marilyn Monroe Day Dreaming"):

Marilyn Monroe as Lorelei Lee from the 1953 movie Gentlemen Prefer Blondes

(Jane Russell was also fantastic in this film!)

This portrait was drawn using a Verithin brand color pencil (using only the black one).

Edit: this entire image was drawn by hand by me.

However, because the digital photo I took of the drawing was rather dark with washed-out mid tones (due to the quality of the photo; the drawing itself has acceptable value variation), I did use Photoshop on the photo of the pencil drawing to remove some smudges and such that were on it, especially on the upper left area by her head, and I used Levels to lighten it.

This drawing is several years old. I don't do much traditional art anymore. Most of my art these days is made on the computer.

Please do not use this drawing without my permission.
