“Prince, Purple Rain” An Amalee Original. I painted this painting in August 2016, but I now find myself thinking about him more. Prince was more than comfortable being seen while I would rather stay hidden. He seemed to be so seen as who he really was and yet he seemed to die lonely and sad. …

“Toulouse and Egon, Frolicking In Bed, As Women” An Amalee Original. I started this painting with the desire to paint another soft beautiful painting but something went haywire.
