A little bit of Marilyn

Marilyn Monroe, the American film star who at one time had been named female World Film Favorite, according to her official web site, died on the early morning of August 5, 1962 at the age of 36, in her sleep. During her career, she had made some 30 films but Something's Got to Give was left unfinished and her death had left a string of controversies. Her name undoubtedly was synonymous with beauty, sensuality and effervescence. The sex goddess became a popular pin up girl when she posed nude for a 1951 calendar. She was paid a mere $50 for her effort. Tom Kelly, the photographer, described her to be a special girl with instinct for drama and showmanship. I bet there is a little Marilyn Monroe in all of us.

You write, I bet there is a little Marilyn Monroe in all of us.
That's so true. And that is so because of our spirituality that mentions neither our gender nor the geographical location. All we need is just to accept the truth and to recognize ourselves in other. That’s the mystery of the Beauty that Fine Art conveys to the world.
