Gotta love those expressive eyes! A lovely portrait indeed and a good medium.

Jayne Somogy replied:

Thank you, Mario. I think the portrait turned out fairly well, but yet is somewhat less than her exceptional beauty.

Thank you so much, Michel--she's actually even much prettier than I made her here! I may do another portrait of her eventually--such a great subject.

Artist's Description

This is a portrait of Nina Mae McKinney(1912-1967). I'll bet you've never heard of her; I hadn't until just recently, and that's too bad. She was one of the first African-American film stars, and obviously an extravagantly beautiful woman. Most of her success came in Europe because 1930's racist Hollywood was afraid to use her in glamorous starring roles. Did I exaggerate her eyes for this portrait? I did not! Even though I often do that, her eyes were naturally that large and gorgeous. She was known as "The Black Garbo."

About Jayne Somogy

Jayne Somogy

I create whimsical, graphic, stylized, often Asian-inspired & sometimes jeweled or embellished interpretations of people, animals, ethnic subjects, objects/still lifes. Art, like life, should SPARKLE! I sign my work 'SOMOGYI' the ethnically-correct version of my Hungarian surname, and I often incorporate my signature into the design of the art itself. I earned a degree in theater from the U. of Wisconsin, an additional degree, summa cum laude, in fashion design from FIDM/Los Angeles, and turned to creating art seriously in 2014 upon retiring from jobs in office administration and free time spent dancing, singing and acting. I have a passion for the exotic--music, dance, food, people--and for exploring other cultures and eras, which is...
