Fresh Faces: New Portraits by Los Angeles Artists

Tonight in Santa Monica: 

Fresh Faces: New Portraits by Los Angeles Artists presented by Saatchi Art

My portrait of Anna May Wong is part of this upcoming exhibition in Santa Monica. Anna May Wong was the first Chinese American film star, and the first Asian American actress to gain international recognition.

Her acting career went from silent films to talkies, to stage, to radio, and to television.

Born in Los Angeles, a few blocks from Chinatown, Anna May Wong's career has been an inspiration for many. My painting was created as an homage to Anna, sourced from numerous photo stills and film clips from the era.
