In the interest of full disclosure, I think there is something you should know. I love Audrey Hepburn. Adore her. Want to be her when I grow up. Her style, her intelligence, her philosophy of living and her legendary kindness all inspire me. So it will come as no surprise to you that I actually gasped with glee when I saw stumbled upon these paintings by Sarah Ashley Longshore.
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness
War and Peace Audrey
Audrey with Monarch Butterflies
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people
Audrey with a Cherry on the Top
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry
A Moment Between Moments
For beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day
For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone
As you grow older, you will understand you have two hands
One for helping yourself
And the other for helping others
Audrey Underwater with Lilies
— Audrey Hepburn
