Marilyn Textured Black and White Portrait (2026)Acrylic painting by Amelia Taylor

This original black and white acrylic portrait captures the timeless glamour and quiet vulnerability of Marilyn Monroe. Inspired by classic Hollywood photography, I wanted to create a piece that feels both iconic and intimate.
Bold, expressive brushstrokes and layered acrylic textures give the painting depth and movement, allowing light and shadow to interact across the surface. The monochrome palette enhances the drama and elegance of the portrait while keeping it modern and timeless.

This is a one-of-a-kind original artwork, hand-painted on stretched canvas using high-quality acrylic paints. The textured surface adds a tactile quality that changes subtly depending on the light, making it a striking statement piece for contemporary, minimalist, or neutral interiors.
