Tamara De Lempicka ~ Art Deco

 Lempicka-  I'm so inspired by her bold, distinctive artistic style. Such beauty and color. I also love how she made all her feminine art forms full and curvy as well as graceful and elegant. She truly started the Art Deco Movement.



May 16, 1898 - March 18, 1980

Cinematic Part 3 - The Leading Lady ~ Bette Davis

  Ruth Elizabeth "Bette" Davis 
Born on April 5th 1908 - October 6, 1989

Bette Davis  thee American film actress of film, televison and the theatre. Known for her work in crime melodrama's to period films and romantic drama's.  The American Film Institute list her as the greatest female star of all time ( I would agree) she won the Academy Award twice for best actress and accrued over 10 Academy Awards nominations over her lifetime. Bette was also the first female president of the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. During World War 2  she was co- founder of the Hollywood Canteen, which helped to entertain all the service people across the country. I think something else that really stands out about her is she was a real actress, she loved her craft and respected it. Not always being the glamour girl or having to sometimes  look much older then what she really was, didn't bother her. She became the character always,  which sometimes made her disliked or misunderstood by others for  her honesty and forceful intensity. I really respect her courage and fire and always being true to herself . She was one smart cookie! It was such fun doing research on her. I think I love her even more now. Of course I've loved her movies and have always thought she was a real film treasure, but I now  have a better appreciation for all her hard work and hard knocks she went through.  To her knowledge, bravery and strength. Bette Davis what a lady!
