Vintage Art – Golden Sable I and II
There’s something about that long, lean, stretched-hourglass figure that’s often featured in vintage ads for champagne. Tattinger used it (“it” being Grace Kelly) in one of their pieces, and here we have two by Poto Leifi for a company (that may be fictional, because I can’t find any info on it) called Golden Sable.
You might be a little surprised to learn that the artist for these two prints is alive and well, and YOUNG!
About Artist Poto Leifi:
Born and raised in Southern California, I’ve been drawing since I was 4 years old. I graduated from Long Beach Polytechnic High School and while I was a junior I attended a Saturday morning art program at Pasadena Art Center College. I attended FIDM in Los Angeles right after high school and graduated in 1987. I’ve been a graphic designer, illustrator, young-men’s/surf wear designer, production manager, shoe designer, and published artist with Editions Ltd. I made up my mind to serve my country after September 11, but was not able to enlist until April 2006 due to career, and family commitments. In September 2006 I left my Design Director position at TAOS Footwear to enter Basic Training I currently serve my country as a multi-media illustrator with my reserve unit in Orange County, CA.
