St. Angelina

The painting called "Blessed Art Thou", 2006, 88' x 60", oil & acrylic on linen by Kate Kretz. Kate explained "This painting addresses the celebrity worship cycle and Angelina Jolie was chosen as the subject because of her unavoidable presence in the media, the world-wide anticipation of her child, her "unattainable" beauty and the good that she is doing in the world through her example, which adds another layer to the already complicated questions surrounding her status."
