I really like Jim Silke's draughtsmanship and ability to evoke earlier golden age times. He is a true aficionado of the 30s and 40s, and yet has a truly modern style. Love his work.
Here are a few actresses rendered with the Silke touch.
i have not seen much of his work, but these are all really nice. I think the Gene Tierney is the best rendered but i always have a soft spot for Clara Bow so that's my fave. great stuff!

My name is Thom Buchanan.
I'm an artist and photographer.
People are my favorite subjects to portray in art and photos. My wife (and studio partner) has called that my 'people skills', as I've been passionately creating portrait studies for many years.
I refer to myself as a pictorialist, a combination of image-making and journalist. Images are my life.
