Featuring iconic movie females like [Dorothy from Wizard of Oz](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-wizard-of-oz-capsule), the bride from Bride of Frankenstein and [Wednesday from The Addams Family](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wednesday-addams-collection), these portraits perfectly capture the likeness of each respective actress while also exuding a classic, timeless quality. Perhaps it’s the nostalgia talking, but these paintings have a magnetism and soul that illustrations from other artists seem to lack. That ineffable quality makes me want to buy up every one of Mount's portraits.
