Stelly Richie people always judge what they can't understand...this was about capturing my lolita essence at that age...I had to practically beg her to paint me in this ligh
Judith Braun Then you twisted her arm to post it too?
Oriane Stender I'm not sure Judith is judging; more like expressing some surprise. It is a bit provocative for a mother to portray her daughter in such a sexual way. I'm not judging either, but if you post it online you must want to be a little provocative, no?
Anthony Haden-Guest Herewith the extremely private narratives filled with intrigues... I like the painting a very great deal. More so knowing you are a fellow writer.
Stelly Richie Judith - yeah, something like that
Stelly Richie Oriane - it's a surprise because there's a lot of content like this that was kept out of fb and the internet in general, but I thought it was time that my mom showcased some of her true talents on here. so many others don't hold back so why should she! these are some of my favorites and perfect for my upcoming book as a kind of preview
Oriane Stender No reason she should hold back, but you may get some reactions. This sounds like some book!
Stelly Richie you know, I don't mind judgment, I welcome it in fact, the kind of deep thinking it provokes, when it comes to my own work. However, when it comes to a friend's work or family member's, I find myself defending them because I'm worried they'll take things too personally, even when I know they won't. I knew I'd have to take this position the moment the pics were posted and was fully prepared. It is indeed a sensitive topic, which is further explored in that book.
Pilar Viviente Wow !!! What a discovery ! Didn't know that you were such talented, Ellen Yustas K. Gottlieb ! Much love
Kalabas Art Great work
Trippy i am enthralled by this
John Schupf Really first-class...first time Ive seen your work ! xx John Schupf
Selin Sinan Uz Marvelous!!
John Schupf Will look for more of your paintings.... I kudos to Stelly for doing such a frank and open pose
Selin Sinan Uz EYKG. U are very talented!!
Stelly Richie thanks John sweetie it's still one of my more innocent poses being covered up and all. I was somehow more adventurous in that way in my lolita days than now, lolz
John Schupf And when were your Lolita days ? You're practically underage now...
Stelly Richie haha caught your book comment there you mean the story behind these? the dark gory story? lol I fictionalized it in my novel and I'm not at liberty to disclose which details in the book are fact or fiction, I'd rather leave it to the reader's imagination still working on the final polishing stages however. I will have to sometime!
John Schupf Yes- I want to read !! Send me now Ill proof read it.....comes with a fire extinguisher?
Stelly Richie I didn't think of that but sounds like a brilliant idea! LOL you know the trouble is I think it's too long and drawn out which is no good in our ADD culture so I must cut a good deal out and rewrite a few areas, I can share the first few chapters but they're not where the action is at, hehe, by the end of this month it'll be good and ready. do you think you can hold your breath (and stay cool) till then?
John Schupf You can sit for me -- look at my album of nudes--but very tasteful !
Anthony Haden-Guest Ellen, dear, I would love a short piece illuminating your journey from writing into painting and back.
Tod Jorgensen Beautiful! Innocent & sweetly provocative, too.
Maria Bacardi Art yes.
George Di Bergendal @eykg, an appropriate composition and a sense of the creative arts, has produced an excellent picture quality.
Paul Jaisini not bad at all
