    ooohhh came across this today...

    is this the ICONIC MariLYN as she would have aged gracefully..... I guess Beauty is in the eye of the BeHOLDer... or is it??





    I wonder if i will AGE  gracefully?? later? or the MANY years of parties...abuse... drink, rock, and Good times.... MICK Jagger still has it... so i guess.. we will all be cool with it...


    The Marilyn Pic came courtesy of

    recently i have come across alot of inspiration with a dark side.. lots of artists delve into this other world... and pull from it beautiful images .... Sonya's work reminded me a little of that Its a world of make believe... a fantasia...

    i believe everyone has a darker edge... at some point in their lives..its whether or not you can gain control of it...

    Eeeps!  Why are the standards different for men and women when it comes to aging.  Personally I think MIck looks a bit craggy but others would say he looks good.

    I actually saw an interview with Jane Russell a few years back, and she looked a lot like the Marilyn Image.
    Maybe it's the party element ,rocking, and all round fun that keeps us looking youthful.
                 Totally agree about the darker side and it's use in arts. Sometimes I think people can make a better connection with a distraught image than they can a bright one.

    Oh, come on. The real, older MM wouldn't have the same hairstyle or same bright-colored make-up. Of course she'd still look good at 70 or 80. And Mick Jagger? He's a man. They have different standards for aging gracefully.

    I think if you avoid the sun, a part of your aging battle is won. What junk you put into your body, that's something to correct now. ;D

    Funnily enough it's Marilyn's birthday today and had she lived she would have been 82.
    I think she still had that edge about her in the aged picture and her face has life experiences etched upon it. However would she have allowed herself to age  gracefully or would she have succumbed to the surgeons knife for a nip and tuck.
