 If recent history is okay, I always thought Grace Slick from Jefferson Airplane had something special. A natural yet unusual beauty, I guess.

 Maxfield Parrish



Not only being an exceptional talent in painting and creating colour depth, he had the square jaw masculine look rocking. An absolute stud.

Apparently, he was an art-hottie too. He had these amazing techniques.

Wikipedia posted:

Parrish's art features dazzlingly luminous colors; the color Parrish blue was named in acknowledgement. He achieved the results by means of a technique called glazing where bright layers of oil color separated by varnish are applied alternately over a base rendering (Parrish usually used a blue and white monochromatic underpainting).

He would build up the depth in his paintings by photographing, enlarging, projecting and tracing half- or full-size objects or figures. Parrish then cut out and placed the images on his canvas, covering them with thick, but clear, layers of glaze. The result is realism of elegiac vivacity. His work achieves a unique three-dimensional appearance, which does not translate well to coffee table books.
