Zelda Fitzgerald


Zelda Fitzgerald is one of my favorite authors.  Even her husband used her diaries for his writings in his claim to fame as a famous author.  She was brilliant.  Her star shone so brightly and then was put out so quickly.  I have several sketches of her, this is one of them.

Paint Party Friday has so many different artists. Thank you Kristin and Eva.
Blessings,
Janet

    Zelda was fascinating, wasn't she? Poor thing never got the respect she deserved. Your drawing is lovely.

    I am going to have to look into her writings (her paintings are fascinating)... I read The Great Gatsby by her husband, but never anything by her... I'll have to check it out (I'm always looking for recommendations, so thank you!)

    How interesting to learn more about Zelda Fitzgerald! It would be great to have a sketchbook with different authors in it, I think! Patsy from
