ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This is a portrait of Anna May Wong, the first Asian American film star. Born in Los Angeles to second generation Chinese-American parents, she began acting in silent films at an early age and created a remarkable career despite the racist casting policies of the American cinematic industry. An early adopter of flapper style, she became a fashion icon as well as a popular and internationally acclaimed actress. Although type-cast in exotic concubine/dragon lady roles she managed to bring depth and grace to her performances. I wanted to bring this ground-breaking woman to life and capture something of her fortitude, elegance and luminous beauty.

United States
I have been drawing and making art in some form since I was four years old. I was born in Washington DC but, as the daughter of an American diplomat, spent much of my childhood in Japan, Korea, and Hawaii. I studied art at Parsons School of Design and afterwards traveled to Europe to learn from the masterpieces in the great museums of London, Paris, Rome and Florence. I studied oil painting at a private atelier in Lisbon and had my first solo exhibit there. My work is in numerous collections throughout the United States and Europe. I currently reside in Arlington Virginia, just across the river from Washington DC.
