Wonder Woman by K Henderson

 

Wonder Woman, 24 x 18, oil on cradled board

Wonder Woman is not technically a Super Hero because she has no Super Powers. She's just your ever day Amazonian who is as Beautiful as Aphrodite, as Strong as Hercules, as Wise as Athena and as Swift as Mercury.

Wonder Woman first appeared in Comics at the beginning of World War II and fought along side our troops against the Evil Axis. That's what this painting is about.

Wonder Woman's war propaganda  included the "Keep 'Em Flying" campaign. The slogan was used in recruiting for the Aviation Cadet Program.

Like Superman, Wonder Wonder disguised herself by putting on a pair of glasses. She instantly became Nurse Diana Prince.

I couldn't find an invisible plane to use in this painting so this blue game piece represents both Wonder Woman's plane and the plane that Steve Trevor crashed on Paradise Island

Rounding out the painting is the Golden Lasso of Truth and the bullet deflecting Bracelets

"Superman fights a never-ending battle for truth and justice, disguised as a mild mannered newspaper reporter Clark Kent."

This Trompe L'Oeil painting shows the transition between Clark Kent and Superman. And, yes, the "Frame" is part of the painting.

Wonder Woman - Work In Progress 2

Wonder Woman, WIP, 24 x 18

I've only had a few hours more to work on this painting but I thought I would show the progress so you can see how wild it's becoming.

Wonder Woman - Work in Progress

Wonder Woman Work in Progress, 24 x 18

I'm working on a few paintings at once. I have nothing new to share so I decided to show a Work in progress.

This is another of my Super Hero trompe l'oeils. I guess I should call this series 'Super Heros in a Box' sense I keep using the same cardboard box to define the elements. What do you think?

This photo was taking after 3 days of painting.

Work in Progress - Super Powers

Super Powers, work in progress,detail, 20 x 16, oil on cradled board

It has been ages since I posted a new contemporary still life painting! But it's not because I haven't been in the studio working.

One of the pieces I have been working on is this trompe l'oeil. This is just the center detail of the painting. It's another in my Super Heros series. I'll tell you the story behind it when I post the finished painting. In the mean time, take a look and tell me what you think.
