The Savvy Decorator—Tuesday Tips Artist, Fine Art Specialist, busy mom and home decorating diva Kim Counts drops by once a week to share art facts, decor tips and more. One of my favorite new artists on our site is Vladimir Gorsky -- have you heard of him? He's fairly famous. Born in Moscow, he immigrated to the U.S. in the late '80s and has since built himself quite a name as an American artist. His work ranges from enormous canvases to tiny gold-leaf paintings on wooden eggs -- but what I'm fascinated with lately are his Pop Art masterpieces . Here's one of the lovely Marilyn Monroe: Marilyn Monroe By Vladimir Gorsky Isn't it cool? It's from Gorsky's popular new Pop Art Celebrity Portraits collection, where he captures Hollywood idols and world-famous icons in bright, vivid colors. A la Andy Warhol , the images are oversized, reflecting the stars' larger-than-life personas. Here's another one: Frank Sinatra: Frank Sinatra By Vladimir Gorsky Apparently, it's been 10 years since Ol' Blue Eyes' passing. But what a voice! My absolute favorite image from this collection is the Jimmy Dean portrait: James Dean By Vladimir Gorsky East of Eden was the first movie I ever saw with James Dean, way back when. Boy, was I crazy about him! And who could blame me? Well, that's it from me this week. If you haven't yet, be sure to check out our new Vladimir Gorsky art prints -- especially if you're an Old Hollywood movie buff! ...
