In this imaginative and cheeky portrait, Donna Kemp steps into the role of the artist, standing confidently at her easel with brush and palette in hand. Wearing nothing but a beret and high heels, she transforms the studio into her stage—blending classic pin-up allure with creative flair.
About The Model:
Very little is known today about Donna Kemp beyond her presence in this striking portrait—an unreleased image from Tom Kelley’s private pin-up archives. In this playful and artful tableau, she stands confidently at an easel with a brush in one hand and a palette in the other, wearing only a beret and heels. The portrait is less a documentation of a known figure and more a crafted artistic persona—embodying the muse, the creator, and the timeless spirit of mid-century glamour.
