Golden Girl
Golden Girl by American Illustrator Roy Best (1892 – ?); and painter known for his pinup art creations.
A beautiful golden hair glamorous beauty with diamond earrings is sitting on the floor in a back wrap around off shoulder yellow, lime, silver evening dress.
The dress forms a disk that encircles her delicate form meeting at her feet, that are fitted with green open toe ribbon topped high heel shoes.
The background transitions from blue at the bottom, to black, then to green at the center top; which accents the exquisite lighting that produce warm candle light skin tones, that are strongest on her face and chest, lightly on her legs and cool on her feet.
Dette er en mesterlig og elegant sofistikert pinup girl-illustrasjon som ligner på verk utført av Rolf Armstrong, Edward Runci, Art Frahm, og Gil Elvgren; som hevet pinup fra en morsom og morsom ung dame i bikini eller kort kjole.
Dette er en retusjert digital kunst, gamle mesters reproduksjon av et offentlig domenebilde som er tilgjengelig for salg som en kunsttrykk på rullet lerret.

Roy var student ved Art Institute of Cincinnati, og deretter gikk han senere på Art Institute of Chicago; og i begynnelsen av karrieren ble han representert av en amerikansk kunstner i New York City på 1920-tallet.
I løpet av sin tid i New York malte han flere omslag for The Saturday Evening Post som ble etablert i 1897 og er fortsatt publisert når dette skrives.
Deretter inn 1931, Roy laget pinup girl-kalenderkunst for Joseph C. Hoover & Sønner kalenderselskap; and later in that same year he was commissioned by the Whitman Publishing Company to illustrate The Peter Pan Picture Book, based on J. M. Barrie’s play Peter Pan.
This led to him illustrating many other children’s books, including “Little Friends from Many Lands” by Mary Windsor (Whitman Publishing Company, 1935).
I 1942 the Treasury’s Section of Painting and Sculpture commissioned Roy to paint a post office mural, called Arrival of Packet, in his hometown of Waverly, Ohio.
In that same year he was hired by Brown and Bigelow the famous publishing company, which lead him into a career producing calendar pin-ups.
In his career he would also paint a number of well known actresses, such as Grace Kelly; og i sine senere år ble han kjent for sine oppdragte oljeportretter og akvarelllandskap av Cape Cod.
