Jeff Jonas @ The Oscars, circa 1978

Had to share it. If you haven't read it, check out Jeff's Facebook post about attending the Oscars. Inspired me--I've been itchin' all week to finish this!!

UPDATE:It feels good to be wanted. Esp'ly by Raquel.
My photo ref (via the estimable J. Jonas hisself). Dunno 'bout Farrah, but Raquel had to be wearing Mackie:
 
p.s. I had to massage Ms. Welch a wee bit in PhoSho to get a better likeness--she's tuff! I'm glad you recognized her right off, Elz...but I thought the Farrah was dead on...!

Oh wow, that's incredible. I see you posted it on Facebook. I can hardly wait to hear his reaction!

You need to post the full picture here on TAG though.

That is an amazing piece. So nicely blended up and textured. I want full size too. I'm not on Jeff's FB linkages.

Great Raquel Welch.

Splendid! So fun, and what a great story it is!

MrGoodson2 said...

And! Farrah Fawcett. Took me awhile.

Right around the time of Kirk and Farrah's Saturn 3. Which I'm sure got multiple Oscars. I really can't tell you why Farrah was a delay recognition. Raquel I got instantly.

Thanks for posting the large size. Talk about something that belongs on a cake. Great work.

Tom Moon said...

Both Farrah and Raquel are spot on.

JMG said...

Hell, nailed it.

Farrah I was slow because you've idealized her jaw line.
She's got a big (pretty) head. Big jaw.
