That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for March 08, 2018

Being a nude lute player was a unique niche.

The morning after pillow “It was my idea to have a pillow fight” She thought, regretfully.

“Only three left until the prom! Why did I wait so long to make my dress?”

Picked her up after last night’s gig, and now, in the morning, you can’t get her to leave.

Desperately working to invent the WonderBra.

has the prior work (my comment there also points to the first 5 artist info URLs; the last has a bit about this work as well). I couldn’t find any speculation as to who Suzanne (pregnant in the painting) was. The artist married in 1873, and his wife may have been pregnant (his sculptress daughter Jean René was born 4/21/1881), when this was done; but, her name was Mette, not Suzanne. Perhaps the artist made up the name.

Once they told her the true nature of the band, she wished she’d studied the bass instead.

I think he should make his own d**m lute bag.

I thought she was kidding when she said she didn’t have a stitch to wear !

“Bluejean baby; LA lady; seamstress for the band…”

Why do all the women painted long ago have small, um, chests, even though the rest of them is chunky. Didn’t they have Anita Ekbergs back then?

Ah, but you should see Anita NOW.
