PEYTON
Elizabeth Peyton is a popular British artist known for drawing fey pop stars. I sort of looked like this portrait when I started the blog, but after I got a haircut and lost my large blue sunglasses, it doesn't fit quite so well. I can't find another painting that is as good a likeness, and I don't want to show a picture of myself, so you're stuck.
