Description: This pinup by artist Robert von Stockhausen features the Indian Goddess Kali doing her dance of destruction ; dancing on the body of Lord Shiva, while collecting blood from the severed head of Mahishasura. She wears a crown, a necklace of skulls, and a skirt comprised of severed arms.
Description: This the 3rd rendition of my tribute pinup piece to Elizabeth Short A.K.A. The Black Dahlia, with text and floral background. She went to Hollywood hoping to become a famous actress, only to be tortured & murdered in one of the most infamous crime in history. Even Death could not keep Elizabeth from becoming famous, ironically the horrendous ordeal she endured and the audacious manner in which her body was flagrantly placed on display by her killer(s) ensured she would be remembered far longer and by more people than most Hollywood starlets of her time! For anyone interested in learning more I would direct you to the works of Steve Hodel; his works on the subject are by far the most comprehensive!
