NEW WORKS FROM THE STUDIO OF ART BY WENDY
Hitchcock had started career as a director in
England but it was this film that caught the eye of Hollywood. I grew up hearing about his movies, they were
scary, exciting and yet gripping. I must
admit I never had the nerve to watch all of Psycho!! I liked his tamer movies, my favourite being
To Catch a Thief (1955) with Cary Grant and Grace Kelly. Do you have a
favourite Hitchcock movie?
If you have a special moment in time you would like me to draw for you Contact Wendy and I will be happy to work with you. We will be able to do most of our work through phone and email.
The Lady Vanishes Poster - just getting started
Have you
seen the movie - THE LADY VANISHES - 1938??? - Starring Margaret Lockwood and Michael Redgrave, directed by Alfred Hitchcock
This is
will be my entry into the Silver Screen Poster Competition with the Surrey Arts
Council. The competition focuses on the
Golden Age of Motion Pictures, the 30’s and 40’s. This was an exciting time in movie industry;
colour, talking and acting were the focus.
This was when some of those really great films were made as well: Gone
With the Wind (1939); The Wizard of Oz (1939); Stagecoach (1939); Casablanca (
1942 ); The Maltese Falcon (1941); were just a few from that period. But more important many careers were launched. I chose the movie The Lady Vanishes (1938) as
it marked a turning point for Alfred
Hitchcock.
Work is underway - Ooops! Seeing the picture in a different format helps to see where changes are needed
If you have a special moment in time you would like me to draw for you Contact Wendy and I will be happy to work with you. We will be able to do most of our work through phone and email.
Have a
great day and I will keep you posted on my progress.
