Sophia Loren

Sophia Loren, another icon in my B&W glamour series!

Sheesh, she has such an incredibly difficult face to paint, it is quite characteristic and if you are one pixel off, she is not Sophia at all
Well the maniac in me painted 3 different faces, I am still not satisfied but she has to do now! Based on a portrait when she was really very young!
The dress is based on a dress by Dior and the shoes are Jimmy Shoo, so it is an eclectic painting but I am sure Sophia could have seen herself in this outfit.

This one is for Brian I hope he will love his Sophia since he suggested her as my next icon. Brian, show this to Flori too, I am so sure she would look tremendous in this dress

Thanks for all comments and faving and oh! I think in B&W I am more realistic than in colors, who would have thought that

In the same glamour series : Ava Gardner
