ABC News presents a two-hour primetime special on America's golden girl Farrah Fawcett. From that iconic red bathing suit poster to her role in the hit show Charlie's Angels, Fawcett took the 1970s by storm and captivated the nation with her every move. But in 2006 Fawcett was confronted with her biggest challenge when she was diagnosed with cancer and began an aggressive fight for her life. Now, almost ten years after her passing, ABC News reports on her life, career, fame and lasting legacy, told through new interviews with those who knew her best and rare footage from the intimate video diaries of her fight against cancer. "This is Farrah Fawcett" airs on Thursday, May 23 8 p.m. ET on ABC. <a href="https://abc7news.com/tvlistings/" style="color: #316bc0; outline: 0px; text-decoration-skip: objects; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Check your local listings</a>.<br /><br />The two-hour documentary features new interviews with actress Jaclyn Smith, Fawcett's co-star on Charlie's Angels; Alana Stewart, Fawcett's close friend who helped record her cancer battle for the two-hour documentary Farrah's Story; Bruce McBroom, the Hollywood photographer who shot Fawcett's iconic swimsuit poster; Mela Murphy, Fawcett's confidant and hairstylist; and Dr. Lawrence Piro, Fawcett's primary physician; and Dr. Ursula Jacob, Fawcett's physician in Germany who used alternative treatments for her cancer. The documentary also includes Barbara Walters' landmark interviews with Fawcett and with Ryan O'Neal, Fawcett's partner at the time of her death.<br /><div class="adRectangle-pos-small-inline" data-set="adAppend">
</div>
<br />After attending the University of Texas Fawcett moved to Los Angeles and began her professional career. Fawcett first appeared in television commercials but quickly began starring in TV shows and then movies. Fawcett continuously sought out projects that she found challenging and worthwhile, including her groundbreaking roles in the films The Burning Bed and Extremities, which both exposed the dark truth of domestic violence and helped shine a light on victims. Fawcett's final project was Farrah's Story, which documented the harsh realities of cancer treatment. The film aired just weeks before Fawcett passed away at age 62.<br /><br />The special is produced by ABC News. David Sloan is senior executive producer. Muriel Pearson is executive producer.</div>

<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="color: #ea9999;">Marshall, who died Monday (December 19th, 2018) at the age of 75, got her acting start next to one of Corpus Christi’s most iconic former citizens, the late Farrah Fawcett, when both were aspiring actresses trying to make their way in Hollywood.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="color: #ea9999;">Marshall’s first television appearance was in a Head & Shoulders beautifying shampoo commercial filmed in 1972. She was hired for the role of a woman with basic brown hair playing opposite a then-unknown Fawcett and her glamorous blonde locks.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="color: #ea9999;">It’s been reported in many stories over the years that Fawcett has some empathy for Marshall before the commercial started filming. Fawcett reportedly crossed out the word “homely” for Marshall’s on-set placard and replaced it with a card that read “plain” to make Marshall feel better about her role as her roommate Lucy.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="color: #ea9999;">“I did my first commercial with Farrah when she first came out here (in Los Angeles),” Marshall told Entertainment Tonight in an interview several years ago in a commercial available on the </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/Commercialjukebox" role="link" style="-webkit-box-shadow: none; box-shadow: none; box-sizing: border-box; color: #4e8dc4; text-decoration: none; transition: all 0.3s linear;">You Tube channel Commercial Jukebox</a><span style="color: #232323;">.</span><span style="color: #ea9999;"> “Guess who had the dandruff.”</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="color: #ea9999;">The two remained friends throughout their lives. Fawcett passed away in 2009.</span></div>

<span style="color: #ea9999;">“I knew her before she was ‘Farrah,’ and I was anybody, ” Marshall said before her death.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="color: #ea9999;">Marshall got her start with a role as “Myrna Turner,” the secretary of Oscar Madison from 1972-74 on “The Odd Couple” that was developed by her brother, Garry Marshall. Her brother also served as the creator in her most memorable recurring acting role in “Laverne & Shirley” from 1976-83.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="color: #ea9999;">It led Penny Marshall to say that her unconventional appearance in Hollywood led her to having issues over the years.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="color: #ea9999;">“I just cannot bring myself to accept that the homely person on the screen is me,” Marshall</span><span style="color: #232323;"> </span><a href="https://www.latimes.com/local/obituaries/la-me-penny-marshall-dies-at-75-story.html" rel="noopener" role="link" style="-webkit-box-shadow: none; box-shadow: none; box-sizing: border-box; color: #4e8dc4; text-decoration: none; transition: all 0.3s linear;" target="_blank">told <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">TV Guide</em></a><span style="color: #232323;"> </span><span style="color: #ea9999;">in 1976. “I grew up believing an actress is supposed to be beautiful. After I saw myself in a<em style="box-sizing: border-box;"> Love, American Style </em>segment, I cried for three days. I’ve had braces put on my teeth twice, but they did no good.”</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="color: #ea9999;">Marshall’s fans certainly didn’t feel that way. And Fawcett tried to make sure she didn’t share any insecurities when they filmed their commercial together.</span></div>

</span><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large;">We rarely know all we think we know about celebrities.</span></i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Not much about Farrah Fawcett, the '70s pinup queen, seemed private during the actress and model's nearly 40-year career: not the nipples she showed through a red bathing suit on the world's best-selling poster during her "Charlie's Angels" era. Not her volatile man troubles with Lee Majors, Ryan O'Neal and other less famous guys. Not the sad story of her drug-addicted son. Not her whole, gold-smeared body, at age 50, when she "painted" a self-portrait for Playboy. Not her unforgettably ditzy appearance on David Letterman's show. </i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
And not even her death, which was documented in a film revealing the most excruciating, intimate details of the battle with cancer she lost when she was 62. </i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Eight years later, an exhibition at Austin's Umlauf Sculpture Garden & Museum is revealing a little-discussed, quieter facet of the vivacious beauty from Corpus Christi: her life as a classically trained sculptor.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
"Mentoring A Muse: Charles Umlauf & Farrah Fawcett" includes 20 artworks created by Fawcett and 25 by her mentor Umlauf, who taught 40 years at the University of Texas at Austin.
Fawcett often mentioned the "art shack" behind her Bel-Air mansion. Hollywood insiders must have known she brought drawing materials to work - she developed her on-screen characters by drawing, not conventional note-taking.
The exhibition's works are drawn heavily from Fawcett's bequest to UT's Blanton Museum of Art, a gift that included 60 pieces of her own making plus works by others, including Umlauf.
Houstonian Greg Walls, Fawcett's nephew, remembers seeing her home full of art when he was too young to question much about it. And it spilled over to the whole family: Walls' parents and grandparents often "horse-traded" Fawcett's works among their homes in the Champions neighborhood.
</i></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>With her celebrity, Fawcett could have shown her work in any number of publicity-hungry galleries. But she didn't.
Contemporary sculptor Keith Edmier, who spent two years in an intimate collaboration with Fawcett during the early 2000s, thinks art provided a retreat she craved. It took her to a happy place she didn't need to share, or want to spoil.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Katie Robinson Edwards, the Umlauf's curator, agreed: "Farrah seemed to be able to escape being 'Farrah Fawcett' when she made art."</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
<b>The ultimate muse</b></i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Until recently, Fawcett's decades-long friendship with Umlauf had been one of the least-discussed relationships of her life. But it was important, and it endured until he died in 1994.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
They met in 1966, her sophomore year at UT, when she changed her major from microbiology to art. The "UT goddess," as art students and faculty sometimes called her, caused a stir almost from her first moment on campus. She was named one of the school's 10 most beautiful women as a freshman sorority girl, when she wore her hair in that era's big, bouffant-y flip. An epic number of boys lined up to date her, filling her schedule with breakfasts, lunches and dinners that first year. (She finally settled on the top pick of the litter, handsome quarterback Greg Lott.)
Hollywood agents came calling, too, enticing her with the promise of modeling and acting contracts. Like a football prospect who just couldn't wait another year to turn pro, she left college after her junior year, never graduating.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
But Fawcett stayed close to Umlauf, writing, calling, visiting his studio to make art alongside him and shipping sculpture to him throughout the 1970s to be cast in bronze at the Italian foundries he used.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
A notorious womanizer, the professor no doubt admired Fawcett's beauty. She modeled live for only one of the sculptures in the show - the 1973 bronze "Head of Farrah" - but she was second as a muse only to Umlauf's wife, Angeline, who had broader hips and a fuller belly.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Umlauf had a few other, shorter-term female models and sculpted a mysterious "Italian girl." (He spent summers without Angeline in Italy, and Edwards suspects he had another life there.) But those muses were not as equal, she said.
</i></span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: large;"><i><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-biTnnM3U-YI/WSWPrjyg0XI/AAAAAAAAa7Y/twmKIpGNIJIK19r4SX5Rn0T1bRiMYekdQCLcB/s1600/1024x1024-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="1024" height="300" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-biTnnM3U-YI/WSWPrjyg0XI/AAAAAAAAa7Y/twmKIpGNIJIK19r4SX5Rn0T1bRiMYekdQCLcB/s400/1024x1024-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></i></span></div>
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: large;"><i>"Farrah was the ultimate muse: She was gorgeous and soon famous but also an artist who kept up her practice and relied on Umlauf for advice."</i></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Letters hand-written in her neat but florid script suggest she kept the friendship proper, always addressing him respectfully as "Mr. Umlauf" or "Professor Umlauf."</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Edwards thinks Umlauf appreciated having a "peer of sorts" with whom he could make art and talk shop - the unsexy business of hydrastone sources, bronze-casting processes and the colors of patinas. </i></span></span><br />

Steeped in traditional, Renaissance-inspired lost wax carving, casting and figuration, Umlauf could bring pure, classical form to any subject, in virtually any medium - wood, stone, clay, bronze, even lard. His forte, oddly, became sensuous nudes and devotional figures as churches across the nation commissioned his religious sculptures.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
But Umlauf's works are rarely realistic, with faces informed by some vaguely generic, classical ideal. And they were not trendy even in the 1960s.
Frankly, his depictions of Fawcett don't look much like her. Another "Head of Farrah," from 1976, tames the then-new, tousled blond mane that millions of American women were copying.
Other well-known Umlauf students built signature identities.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
The late Luis Jiménez celebrated Hispanic and Southwest culture in monumental sculptures of polychromed fiberglass. The flamboyant Robert "Daddy-O" Wade once created the world's largest cowboy boots. Veteran Houston sculptor Ben Woitena embraced abstraction.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Many artists who stick with a practice as long as Fawcett did evolve stylistically, stimulated by new influences. But something about classicism kept her engaged for a lifetime.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Edmier said he didn't question her old-fashioned taste and reverence for Pierre August Rodin and Michelangelo. For their shared project, it was an asset. Today their collaboration would be labeled "performative" - 2017 code for edgy, intangible, time-based stuff - but they produced works that were "self-consciously connected to 19th-century sculpture," Edmier said.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
The Umlauf show reveals her surprisingly sensitive eye, her desire to speak poignantly through her hands and, as Edwards put it, "some serious Catholic-girl taste."</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Fawcett owned six versions of Umlauf's pietas, depictions of the Virgin Mary holding a dead Christ, and a dramatic drawing of Christ's head hanging from the cross.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
"Who would want that?" Edwards mused.</i></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: large;"><i>In the "Mentoring" show's Fawcett portraits and self-portraits, the famous megawatt, party-girl smile is absent. Her eyes are often lost in some faraway gaze, her lips closed and sometimes downturned. </i></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
She seems sad even in her small painting "Two Faces," which fuses the dark blue-black face of a male with that of a light-skinned, brunette female who sheds a subtle tear. Their heads are bound together by a gold-leafed floral crown.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
"It's so anti-Umlauf, in a way, much more home-spun and Surrealistic," Edwards said.
That painting belongs to a large series Fawcett made of the same two faces. Edwards believes the subjects represent O'Neal and Fawcett.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Fawcett also cast plaster or bronze sculptures in as many as 25 multiples.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Late in life, she told Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reporter Patricia Sheridan she loved the process: "I think you are never completely satisfied. You are never finished, you know."</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
A couple of nude female torsos in "Mentoring a Muse" show her exploring and learning. She was copying Umlauf pieces whose chopped limbs recall the ruined remains of antiquities.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Edwards sees him trying to solve the problem of cutting figures off at the neck and attenuating the shoulders and arms, and finds his solutions disturbingly misogynistic.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
"It drives me crazy when he takes the clay, then it almost looks like he takes a wire and shaves off the head, but he leaves hair back here. No head! But look what she does, in class with him: the same thing but not so harsh."</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Fawcett omits the hair, softens the shoulders so they look movable and gives her figure something to lean on other than a lost arm.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
"Some part of her thought, 'This is not natural,' " Edwards said. "Part of what I wanted to do with this show, although I need to do more work on it, is make an argument for her as a proto-feminist."</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Perhaps, in exploring the female form, Fawcett also could reflect on her own body image, or turn the tables and be the looker instead of the constantly looked-at.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Edmier doubts she was aware of feminist contemporary art theory when her Playboy escapade with the gold paint was published in 1997, but he knows it could have been respected today as more than a desperate publicity stunt.</i></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: large;"><i>Edmier, 20 years her junior, built his reputation with works inspired by people who have "marked time" in his life. He had fantasized about Fawcett since he was a kid with that iconic poster in his bedroom. He was surprised, and thrilled, when her condition for posing turned the whole muse thing on its ear: He, too, had to pose for her.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
During two years together, they produced six sculptures, many photographs and drawings, and a book. The big attention-grabber was their contrasting nudes of each other: He depicted her horizontally, in a marble inspired by Rodin, demurely leaning against a sandy-looking base that hides her front side. She re-created him vertically, leaning against a boulder in a full-frontal bronze inspired by Michelangelo's Adam.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
At the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, "Keith Edmier and Farrah Fawcett 2000" yielded an avalanche of mostly fluff publicity and one scathing critical review. Three years later, at Pittsburgh's Andy Warhol Museum, earlier works by both artists were included.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Yet no one delved far into Fawcett's art history.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Edwards acknowledged she was "kind of a snob" about Fawcett's art the first time she saw it in the Blanton's storage vaults.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
"I remember telling people, 'Well, she's adequate.' Which was really obnoxious of me. But you learn. I'm amazed at how good she was."</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Edwards devotes a small wall of her show to Fawcett's "anti-Umlauf" side. She owned a few edgier works, including a 1947 drawing by the Dadaist Man Ray.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
O'Neal introduced Fawcett to Warhol, who photographed her and eventually painted a matched pair of major portraits from his images. Fawcett's mouth is closed in those works, too, although Warhol renders her with pop-slicked red lips and bright teal eyes.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
The Blanton now owns one of those Warhols, which hangs in its contemporary galleries. O'Neal sued UT to win the other. </i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Fawcett wasn't much of a collector. Sylvia Dorsey, a college chum who decorated Fawcett's homes, advised her to frame the napkin sketches by Warhol she'd thrown into a box.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Knowing that helps put Fawcett's attitude in context: She didn't care about the art market. Her work, and her interest, really were deeply personal.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
"She would have preferred to be known as that kind of artist, rather than an actress," Dorsey said.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Fawcett's bequest to UT includes 168 of her own works - a legacy that warrants a "Farrah Part Two" exhibition that could include the Edmier project, Edwards said.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>

</div>
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>For now, "Mentoring a Muse" offers a rare chance to glimpse a more complex Farrah than all the tabloid stories could illuminate. And the most telling works are her own creations.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
With intense, harmoniously chiseled features, "Head of Diane," a bronze of Fawcett's sister, easily holds its own next to Umlauf's sculptures. She captures a wild, primitive force in a sanguine drawing that depicts Majors.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Another standout is Fawcett's circa-1970 self-portrait, an oil on canvas. There, she renders herself as a solemn, long-haired beauty. The muse's muse seems to be materializing like a ghost through an oval opening in a softly clouded atmosphere of emptiness.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
Maybe she just didn't want to bother with painting more than that, or couldn't. Artists can turn their technical issues into assets. Fawcett's self-portrait is more expressionistic than realistic, and slightly generic. </i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>
But once a painting enters a public realm, viewers will read into it whatever feeds their imagination. This woman is the antithesis of the gamine, giggly-looking girl in the red swimsuit, but in her way, no less alluring.</i></span></span><br />

<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: savoy, georgia, serif; font-size: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.75em;">
<span style="color: #ea9999;">Whip out your gel-pen notebook and add poster culture to the list of nostalgic trends making a comeback in 2017. Even in the age of endlessly scrolling Instagrams, personalized Pinterests, and tailored-just-to-your-liking memes, nothing really has the same impact as unfurling an image from a magazine and plastering it up on your bedroom wall. <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Vogue</em>’s September 2016 issue came with a foldout poster of cover star <a href="http://www.vogue.com/tag/celebrity/kendall-jenner/" style="-webkit-transition: 200ms; border-bottom-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none; transition: 200ms;" target="_blank">Kendall Jenner</a> in a beige slip and wearing bright red lipstick. Farrah Fawcett in her red Norma Kamali swimsuit is the progenitor of this category of poster; earlier it was pinup girl Bettie Page smirking in the California sand.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: savoy, georgia, serif; font-size: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.75em;">
<span style="color: #ea9999;">The current resurgence of poster culture adds a new element—it not only celebrates the image, but the human form itself. You see, many of fashion’s new posters showcase models completely, or almost completely, nude. The most startling example of this provocation comes from one of its most daring provocateurs, Jonathan Anderson. In advance of his J.W.Anderson Fall 2017 menswear show in London on Sunday, Anderson has released a <a href="http://www.dazeddigital.com/fashion/article/34185/1/jwanderson-alasdair-mclellan-debut-nsfw-photo-project" style="-webkit-transition: 200ms; border-bottom-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none; transition: 200ms;" target="_blank">poster campaign of full-frontal nude men</a>. Photographed by Alasdair McLellan, the pictures don’t hold anything back. They’re not sexy in the traditional sense—no oiled biceps or six-pack abs. Rather, they’re revealing looks at male nudity framed beside shots of pastel sunsets. Anderson’s frequent collaborator, photographer Jamie Hawkesworth, has his own nude poster out this month, too. As a part of the new magazine <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Print</em>, Hawkesworth <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BNwryDQga1K/?taken-by=print_publication" style="-webkit-transition: 200ms; border-bottom-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none; transition: 200ms;" target="_blank">photographed</a> model Mica Arganaraz wearing only undies with the name <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Jamie</em> embroidered across the really nether regions. In all likeliness, fashion fans will be scooping up these posters in droves. Pro tip: Find a place to stash the framed nudes when your parents come over.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">I’m reading Leslie Jones’s twitter account. It’s unbelievable to me that this is what she is responding to, outright racist attacks from a lot of awful people. Jones is, in my opinion. a very funny lady. Love or hate Saturday Night Live (I chose to love it) Jones brings an energy and presence that defies you not to laugh with her. It is rare she breaks character in any skit. The only time I have seen her slip and crack was when Melissa McCarthy was hosting. She is so funny, her delivery her quips and her quick comebacks. In addition there is often a mischievous look, a knowing expression and you see the light in her eyes when a JOKE works and hits home! Her on going banter with Colin Jost is a high point every time SNL is on.. but, sadly, this is not what I am writing about.

<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">To still be able to breathe but feel as though someone has knocked the wind out of you. To be called a name that cuts you to the core. To be mocked and ridiculed into a defensive stance against people who don’t understand or even value what TRUTH or HONOR or MORALITY means. Forget a rational discussion or any kind of enlightenment. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: large;">Some people are so staunch in their own mire of hate and misunderstanding and idea of what IS that you can not crack them like a walnut. They have their own secrets and lives of damages and damage to continue to inflict. No doubt it’s meaningless whatever it is that they really do with their time and their pursuits of self. It would be hard to imagine that they pursue or achieve anything that isn’t self pleasuring or absorbing.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: large;">It’s a different kind of affliction these strange human like creatures who speak as you and I do but only ugliness comes out and they seem to happily suffer from and envelope themselves in it then they, in a hushed whisper or a maniacal type laugh, with a tilted head, as though they know what they are doing is shameful and disgusting and must be whispered as people with any kind of moral or good sense of self would correct them immediately, spew their venom. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: large;">How can someone so ugly and hate filled contribute much to anyone other than their own destruction? To tear down a stranger simply because they are in a movie or on tv and are experiencing their own happiness and success is pathetic and weak and meaningless. </span></div>

<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">What is the point? To hurt her? To inflict your sense of nothingness upon someone else? To achieve what? A self high five in the darkness of your limited trash existence? I don’t understand hate. </span></span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">I recognize it. </span></span><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: large;">I expect it.</span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">I have learned to walk away, become quiet, and remove myself from situations where those around me are consumed by it. </span></span><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: large;">Sadly, it seems that those infected with racism have more rabid followers like themselves to huddle with and carve out their new domain and home in a rotted corpse of hatred. I can’t imagine them in homes, with heaters and Christmas trees, with hugs and families. Least of all I can not imagine them in a movie theater, watching a comedy and enjoying a heartfelt laugh. </span><br />
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">
I almost feel sorry for them.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJdHy89VE29gJndFujwn1af9daeXISZmdzS7sB_yXKKxsa7HojodRdnCNl4HeuivopVToRYlem7N29e5M3O9wKQc3t3YxwU5U_g5A6c2pitpGhZsVystN5OX4yrMvC2SJx1Xlt6czRRag/s1600/dalva2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJdHy89VE29gJndFujwn1af9daeXISZmdzS7sB_yXKKxsa7HojodRdnCNl4HeuivopVToRYlem7N29e5M3O9wKQc3t3YxwU5U_g5A6c2pitpGhZsVystN5OX4yrMvC2SJx1Xlt6czRRag/s640/dalva2.jpg" width="419" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She’s Still Touched by ‘Angels’<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Farrah Fawcett can’t escape the ghost of a former hairstyle.
Twenty years after the actress’ one-year stint on Charlie’s Angels, there are
those who still see her as the ‘70s golden girl who gave curling iron
manufacturers a reason to live. “I see T-shirts everywhere, with my face, my
poster,” she says. “In Saudi Arabia they’re using photographs of me – not only
form Charlie’s Angels but from when I did ads for Faberge shampoo to advertise
everything: clothes, food, vitamins. It’s almost like I couldn’t stop (the
image) even if I wanted to.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Which makes her break from Jill Munroe even more impressive.
Fawcett’s latest effort, the TV movie Dalva (ABC< March 3, 9 p.m.), is an adaptation
of the novel by Jim Harrison (Legends of the Fall). As the title character, she
plays a woman in search of a son she gave up at 16. “What I like about her,”
says the actress, “is that she chooses to do this at a time when she’s come to
terms with her independence and sexuality.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The role is a change of pace for Fawcett, 49, whose attempt
to break the Angels mold led to a string of crazed/victimized female parts, including
the woman who torches her abusive husband in 1984’s The Burning Bed. “I feel responsible,”
she says of the exploited-woman-of-the-week trend. “But in a positive way, too.
Because there weren’t any roles like that (for women) before I did them. IT was
either Dynasty bitches or the other woman.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidMjwutKRLG4p4FChP1Dz_qoniM8fJesUn9j8dDl4k7pUa0mbiuF3nkkQVECIGzxwC4EqPlo-PZCIP1duWndX-tmWgePwWDJAcKxts6urKB0vtOLfUtAOGQ1Sa74MFByCe2Nq1Ooa0c_E/s1600/dalva.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="243" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidMjwutKRLG4p4FChP1Dz_qoniM8fJesUn9j8dDl4k7pUa0mbiuF3nkkQVECIGzxwC4EqPlo-PZCIP1duWndX-tmWgePwWDJAcKxts6urKB0vtOLfUtAOGQ1Sa74MFByCe2Nq1Ooa0c_E/s320/dalva.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dalva “fits in none of those categories. It’s the first time
where I play a real woman,” says Fawcett, adding that her decision to do the
role coincided with her decision to pose for last December’s Playboy. “Those
two characters – because what I did in Playboy is a character – share a similarity
in the security in their sexuality.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Fawcett now has security in abundance: a longtime
relationship with actor Ryan O’Neal, their son, Redmond, 11, and respect from
the industry. In fact, as far as the networks are concerned, she can write her
own ticket. “They say, ‘Let’s leave it to her. She delivers the numbers,’” says
Fawcett. “It’s not out of the kindness of their hears. People trust my instincts.”

From that minute on I became obsessed with her. I was a kid who liked to draw and I luckily could express my fascination in sketch form. So, every Saturday afternoon I sat in from of the tv set with my notepad and a pencil and started to draw her. It became such an obsession that my parents started to worry. I may have done thousands of sketches that ended up in the trash, because they only served to express my fandom. I wish we had internet back then, because I couldn’t get enough of her in print. I bought every magazine that featured her that I could afford (remember I was a kid and didn’t have much money). When she left Angels, I followed her movie career like a madman. I dragged my older brother along since my parents wouldn’t let me go alone to the movies. God bless my brother, he had to endure such stinkers… but I found all of her movies to be great and she was great in them. Time has passed and I turned my interests to other icons and movie stars but even today, when I come across a picture of Farrah, something physical happens to me, like a chill, butterflies in my stomach. You can’t forget your first love.</span></span></i><br />

When I finished college I got a scholarship at Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, and studied there for a year. When I came back from the States I began working as a graphic designer and art director in a publicity studio, and I’ve been working there ever since. My illustration work is something I’ve been developing these last years. But only on personal projects and on subjects of high interest to me, like my recent contribution with a series of illustrations to the Encyclopedia Madonnica published by Matthew Rettenmund. (*Matthew Rettenmund is a writer, editor and blogger who lives in NYC with his Shih Tzus, his Madonna collection and his emotional baggage. His book, “Encyclopedia Madonnica”, is considered the bible on all things Madonna)</span></span></i></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<i><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Although my day job is fulfilling and requires creativity on my part, I sometimes miss the sheer pleasure of drawing. The illustration software is so sophisticated now (Adobe Illustrator) that it allows me to create images very close to the organic ones, giving it a distinctive touch, close to airbrush. The process, though digital, remains the same, beginning with the blank canvas, but replacing the pencil or brush with the mouse. In those personal projects I wanted to blend my two passions, graphic art and movie stars. So I started doing these movie portraits that I shared only with friends, just for fun. Then I started sharing them online. Now I have a <a href="https://m.facebook.com/AlejandroMogolloArt" target="_blank">facebook </a>and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/alejandromogolloart/" target="_blank">Instagram </a>art pages with many followers. It’s been a great journey, being able to share my work with fellow fans all over the world and has brought me the opportunity to get in touch with them and received their wonderful response. As an artist that is so gratifying. I couldn’t ask for more.</span></i></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Farrah Fawcett may have been Charlie's angel in the '70s, but to others she was a crusader who lent her celebrity status to furthering awareness of domestic violence.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">The Ray High School graduate's experiences starring in the 1984 TV movie "The Burning Bed" sparked her desire to help victims of domestic violence. The film tells the true story of Francine Hughes who killed her abusive husband of 13 years in 1977. Hughes was found not guilty and her story was chronicled in a book and later adapted into the movie starring Fawcett.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">In this photo taken Dec. 30, 1993 Fawcett signs autographs during an appearance in the atrium of Bay Area Medical Center.

<span style="font-size: large;">The actress, who was born and raised here until leaving to attend the University of Texas, traveled to the city with her parents Jim and Pauline Fawcett from Houston. The three had spent Christmas with Fawcett's longtime partner Ryan O'Neal and their young son. Fawcett commented that she knew exactly the last time she had visited the city, "because I was just six weeks' pregnant with my son, Redmond, who's now 8."</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Antonio Realli is a Brazilian Fashion Designer who not only
creates fashions for 1:1 women but for their 1:6 scale counterparts. His
fashions can be seen on Flickr, Facebook, and Instagram on dolls and women all
over the world. Realli’s vision for fashions and fabric have made him a stand
apart and stand out with bold color choices and fabrics that give lift and
light to those that model his creations. Here is a short Q&A with the
designer who enjoys the simple things like lunch prepared by his mom every day
in Brazil.</i></span><o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<i><span style="font-size: large;">A little Questions and Answers with Antonio Realli. </span></i><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b><br /></b>
<b>1.</b> What inspires a certain dress? Is it a fabric or a memory or a theme?</span> I've watched many fashion shows in order to know what designers are creating. I create designs that reflect my personality. I look for inspiration everywhere to come up with and create a new dress that is dynamic, original and beautiful.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>2.</b> Can you describe the process for your designs from pattern to sewing? What is the typical method to your madness (as it is)? </span> As a designer, not just for dolls, I often times have fabric left over. I want to create a dress because of a certain material. I sketch ideas and designs constantly and select those that best fit the doll and image of what I’m feeling at that moment.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>3.</b> What is your earliest memories of Barbie?</span> 1988 “Estrela,” a licensed manufacture of Barbie in Brazil launched a doll collection which were extremely detailed and had a variety of dolls. I fell totally in love with them.<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #e06666;"> <b>4.</b> Did you play with Barbie as a child or other dolls?</span><span style="color: blue;"> </span> No. I viewed dolls as a work of art. I displayed mine in cabinets and enjoyed admiring them as displayed, but not as toys.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>5.</b> Do you yourself collect Barbie’s or other dolls? If so who and why.</span> I collect model Barbies (Muse and Silk-stone) however, I have dedicated more of my designs and collection now towards Fashion Royalty. The FR line better represents me and my designs. I think, though, that the newer generation of Barbies will eventually lead me back to them<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>6.</b> Who inspires you as a designer today? </span> Working in fashion I have a wide appreciation for multiple designers and fashions. I developed my own style and, for me, the designs reflect and have more to do with my personality and the way I’d like to dress women in general.<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>7.</b> Do you follow fashion? If so who inspires you and why </span> I do view fashion shows but I’m not following any trends, they do not influence my designs. Fads come and go and I want my dresses to reflect what I envision as beautiful and timeless. I do think the work of Ralph and Russian is fantastic!<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>8.</b> What design are you each most proud of and why?</span> I’m proud of all my designs. It’s impossible to pick one over the other as each is a favorite in its own moment.<br />
<br />

</tbody></table>
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>9.</b> What is your favorite color palette to work with?</span> I used to work with a very minimal color palette, neutrals. It wasn’t until a friend on Flickr said I should expand my color base to include all hues that I started developing designs in every color under the sun!<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>10.</b> What do you both do outside of sewing dresses?</span> Designing is my life. At some point I want to retire and live on or very near the beach but it will be a while before that happens.<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>11.</b> What has been the most challenging in being your own salesperson?</span><span style="color: blue;"> </span> As a collector and a salesman I try to meet the demands and expectations of buyers as I can relate being a collector myself. I know the importance of meeting those expectations and I challenge myself to deliver items the way I’d want to receive them.<br />
<span style="color: #ea9999;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>12.</b> What is the most satisfying compliment you’ve received?</span> I’ve received several compliments and for me, all publicly posted or stated compliments are great and equal! I’m always extremely flattered and thrilled with the kudos I’ve received.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>13.</b> Are you constantly shopping for new fabrics and ideas or do you have visions of what you want to do next?</span> I’m always searching for new fabrics, ideas and things that inspire me to create. Sometimes collectors will tell me about a dress they like and I will research that gown or dress and make an item that is in my own style but influenced by something recommended<br />

<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>14.</b> What line of doll was your favorite or is your favorite now?</span> Currently it is Fashion Royalty but I started with the Barbie Model Muse many years ago. That line still holds a special place in my heart.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>15.</b> What would you like to see in a line of Barbie or other collectible that isn’t available but you think would be amazing?</span> I’d like to see less animated and child like expressions as well as better articulation for dolls in general. I suspect the articulation is occurring.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>16.</b> You seem very aware of the seasons and holidays when you design and post new dresses. How far out in advance do you plan or is this truly a labor of love? </span>I don’t follow seasons I just design dresses I want to create for a certain collection.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>17.</b> Favorite time of day and why? </span> Lunch time is my favorite time and I love to eat! Every day I eat at my Mom’s house and I wouldn’t change that for anything!<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>18.</b> If you’d like to share a little history, where did you grow up and favorite memory of the Christmas Holiday or favorite holiday in general</span> I have a memory that many collectors will relate too, my boyfriend Felipe, who is always by my side was seemingly indifferent to my hobby. At one time I was perusing eBay and made a comment that I found a beautiful doll and it would be interesting to have her but I didn’t purchase her and I actually forgot about it completely. I really thought he wasn’t even paying attention, however, a month later he gave me a gift, I opened it and it was that doll! Isn’t that a great example of someone who loves you and supports your passion? I am grateful every day that he is by my side. I don’t mention dolls I like now though as I don’t want him to keep doing that!<br />

<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>19.</b> What is something other people who want to sew should focus on? </span>First and foremost: Quality. Second: Humility. View other designers as artists and not competitors. For example, I am very passionate about the work of Cholo Ayuyao and the professionalism and creativity of Ryan Lyang (Shantommo). In general I’m a very conservative person but I’m enjoying this time in my life. Other designers will emerge and have their moments too and I celebrate artists in general.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>20.</b> Is the scale of dress more difficult than say sewing for a person?</span> Nothing beats the scale of a person as the details to dress them can take days to develop in addition to passing the dress/gown/design to several others such as a dressmaker, seamstress, embroiderer. In short a design for a person is very labor intensive. Dolls are much simpler.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>21.</b> What are three things you want to do in 2016? </span> Time to travel if work permits that and I want to have more time to devote to my partner, family as well as purchasing more dolls<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b>22.</b> Thank you so much for your time. Please add any additional thoughts you’d like to share. </span> Thanks for this interview! One last thought: Everything in life is a phase, sometimes we feel on top of the world and then suddenly we're down, because human beings have an absurd need for new things and what is new today will be old tomorrow. So enjoy your time doing your best because even when you aren’t the most celebrate and center stage: your name will be remembered with respected for the quality of work you did present.<br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Unbeknownst to most folk, or of no thought at all is the
person behind the Mattel, Hot Toy or Tonner Sculpt of a collectible doll,
sometimes a specific celebrity. Many of these companies, like Franklin Mint and
Disney too, don’t list, reveal or credit the sculptor of any given doll. More
often than not the sculptor like many artists who work on the preliminary dolls
(or prototype) have signed a contract prohibiting them from showing the work they have
done or even being able to show or post what they did do to any form of media.
Be it Facebook, twitter or anything else, they are prohibited from exhibiting
their part in the process.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Noel Cruz has often stated and still states unequivocally,
that the basis for the best possible repaint of a celebrity is the underlying sculpt.
He has also painted many dolls where in that particular sculpt wasn’t ever
intended to be a specific person (living or dead) and the mastery of his craft
is very apparent on both formats.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The reality is Cruz feels that all artists involved should
be able to take credit for their work. Cruz himself has often wanted to commission
a sculptor but has no idea who it was that sculpted a great sculpt, take the
Farrah Fawcett sculpt done for Mattel. Cruz would love to have a non-smiling
version. Who do you contract? Where do you start? Mattel won’t release or share
the name of the original sculptor. That’s their right. They paid for the work and
the artist/sculptor who did it agreed to their terms.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Cruz often gives credit where a doll company and production
company would not: to the nameless sculptor who continues to do amazing and
detailed work but without any namesake recognition. So credit must end up going
to the doll company that produced the said doll that ended up being stripped of
its factory paint, then restyled, sometimes re-rooted, then repainted.</span></div>

</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The ultimate ability to breathe life into these three
dimensional canvases, especially one that was never molded or intended to be a
specific person goes to the artist. It takes a lot of skill and mastery to give
the correct depth, via shading and light to create the nuances of a smile, a
smirk or a glint in the eye of that collectible and Noel Cruz has become a name
recognized for that ability. A humble and quiet man in Anaheim who makes his
living auctioning and being commissioned to repaint and restyle a doll in the
likeness of someone’s favorite celebrity.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
