The fact that she was married to Orson Welles and they gave birth to 'The Lady From Shanghai' (not to mention a daughter, as well) makes her an even greater star in my book. Talk about class.

wow, well done Mr. Oliveira. These will instantly sell out. I really like the symbiotic effect of an iconic b/w photograph with poping colors. But I can't decide which one I should buy, I like them all but don't have the funds for all 3 :\.

Tim really knocked this one out of the park. Im not into hype, but I think he is producing the best pop art prints today.

I agree, these dont need any hype. Classic Hollywood Icons, great colors. Tim makes it look so simple, yet I could NEVER produce this quality work. I anxiously await this drop

Does the version that's at the top of this page match his 1952 print background-colors wise?

Love all 3! Great color choices on these, well done Tim!

My hope for the next lady in the series is Brigitte Bardot. Not as popular as Marilyn or Rita but just as sexy!!!

Don't forget to mention Audrey and some guys like Cary Grant, James Stewart and Gregory Peck

I would like to see Sharon Tate, not sure if it could get much better than Koziks gigposter though...

So interesting how we're all drawn to different things. For me, in the purple/blue version, Rita lies on top of the background. In the other two, it seems to me there is far more tension between the foreground image of Ms. Hayworth and the background colors, and I love that about them.

Of course, to each his (or her) own.

I am now a fan of Tim. I wish I would have nabbed that Marilyn as these two side by side would look grade A noice. I need stuff to put in my new office that isn't drab and dull so these will work perfectly..plus they are hot ladies. I want that blue/purple!
