Here are a bunch of images I’ve found online. I’ve posted them here so you don’t have to search for images and portrait ideas. Unfortunately I do not remember where I got most of them, as I would save them under the artist, title and date. I am working on fixing that this summer so please be patient!

There are also some things to be aware of when it comes to using online images. They are the color shifts and details. If there is a dress you want to recreate or view in more detail, I would suggest searching for a print copy.

The images and artwork that I have not created are used for non-commercial purposes only.
