Linda Ronstadt......

This is from "My lifetimes Artwork" which I have scanned almost all of my work and put in my pc as a catalogue a few years back. This is a pretty old drawing not sure when I did it, but I tell you, try drawing "the opposite" white chalk pencil on black paper, the shadows and light are the complete opposite, its not easy to do, but what a challenge it was. I did a few of these "white on black" drawings...

You drew this? Amazing! and she was one of my favorites to listen too! Great work!

P.S. Her look and style in the drawing reminds me when she was with her band, Stone Ponies.

Carolyn I am an avid Linda Ronstadt fan myself just like you. I think this one is right around the time of her album "silk purse" with her and the pig? Do you remember that one? I still have saved quite a few of her albums. When I was grocery shopping the other day they played "Long long tme" and I started singing to it as its just one of my favs of hers, and I suddenly could hear many others singing outloud to it also..mostly women..lol..:o)

I'm glad you dropped by to see my Art Carolyn..thanks..

Angel Blessings to you my friend!

P.S. Carolyn, remember when she was in "The Stone Ponies" she was always barefooted and never wore shoes? I liked her from the very beginning. I used to wear my hair kind of like hers with the bangs way over my eyes (lol) and I also wore the big hoop earrings and cuts offs like her. Some hippie I was I fit the "look" but never took the drugs..hey didn't need any wild and "spaced out" anyway! I'm a Pisces after all so I knew better than to take drugs as I mentioned to you before I probably would have taken a "flying leap" off a building thinking I could fly or something..I watched everyone around me though "high" and just was kind of "high" by being my normal wild self! Still am! sometimes..he he. Problem is its very strange but I now see a lot of those people that were so high and "free" during those times are now so "shut down" and "comfortably numb" and I'm not..Now how does that figure?..hmm..still trying to figure that one out..
