Description
I drew this portrait last year, over the years I have drawn many of Marilyn for fun and practice. The reference photo is from the Milton H. Green collection, since drawing this one I contacted Joshua Green (Milton H. Greens son) and he gave me permission to display the portrait... on the net I'm only allowed to post a small image of this one so I decided to chop it instead of posting the full pose.Graphite pencil
11 x 14 Bristol

Marilyn Monroe, one of the most beautiful women in the world, was a size 14.
So to all you girls who think you're fat because you're not a size 0, remember that
You are the beautiful one.
It's society that's the ugly one.

Very pretty - Milton Greene again. Ever try one of the Richard Avedon ones, of her lying on the couch with ostrich feathers, I think they are, or in the glittery dress, or the two-tone red one?
