Cindy Sherman

Cindy Sherman created this portrait and I am amazed by it.  I love how she can transform herself into all these different characters.  This portrait is of an older woman who looks very prestigious and she is well dressed with expensive looking jewelry such as the pearl necklace and the big earrings.  Her facial expression also gives off the impression that she is a snotty, conceited person who is concerned with her image and how she is presented.  The background, which Sherman revealed is added last, helps complete the piece.  The background of what looks like it is part of a expensive estate ties the whole portrait together.  Cindy Sherman is now one of my favorite artists that i have been exposed to during this class.
