ABOUT THE POP-ARTIST
From lines of glitter cocaine to Jesus surrounded in Louis Vuitton
to Kate Moss as a nun, Ashley Longshore’s pop art paintings are
never shy of daring, her art makes noise. On any given day you
may catch her in her New Orleans gallery painting with Blake
Lively, taking business meetings in New York, or on a remote
island in Hawaii painting a new collection. A self proclaimed
“Urban Hippie”, Ashley enjoys being one with nature as much as
she does shopping on Madison Avenue amongst the high end
items depicted in her work. A prolific artist at a pivotal moment
in her career, she has been compared to Andy Warhol by Town &
Country Magazine, for her obsession with pop culture figures and
brands as well as her relationships with celebrities. She has had
major collaborations with brands such as luxury cosmetics brand
“
Cle de Peau, Chloe, Mark Cross, Judith Leiber, and most recently
had a record-breaking exhibition at the luxury retailer Bergdorf
Goodman. She has emblazoned the path for pop art and fashion
to coexist.
I want to live in a world of laughter,
color, sparkle, and shine. Life is too
short to not spend most of the day
with a smile.
Her work has been featured in magazines in both the United States and countries around the
world including Switzerland, Belgium, Japan and Australia where collectors have begun to acquire
her unique pieces described by a certain celebrity client as “Elegant yet rebellious”. Beyond movie
stars such as Blake, Salma, Penelope, and others who need no more than a first name to describe
them there are the super star athletes like Eli Manning, the hedgies and billionaires as Ashley calls
them, the jeweler to the stars, Lorraine Schwartz and the royalty, HRH Prince Pierre D’Arenberg,
who are counted among her collectors. Whether they have purchased one of her famed Audrey
Hepburn portraits, her trophy series, or a piece of her bold and defiant furniture, one thing is
certain they have all taken note of a new player on the scene in the contemporary art world, and
their space will no longer be the same.

THE AUDREY’S PORTRAIT SERIES The Audrey’s are a series of portraits of the iconic Audrey Hepburn, who has become a signature Longshore muse earning her worldwide acclaim. These paintings have become the cornerstone of her vast body of her and are collected around the world by a variety of women who can all relate to Audrey in one of her many forms. Blake Lively, Salma Hayek, Penelope Cruz and Katherine Heigl are all notable Audrey collectors.
THE AUDREY’S PORTRAIT SERIES
TROPHY SERIES TROPHY COLLECTION Fascinated by our culture’s obsession with money and material objects these paintings focus on a particular subculture of men and women, who relate accumulation of wealth to happiness and power. From Veuve Cliquot bottles, to Louis Vuitton, Cartier, Diamonds, Drugs and more; name brands and conspicuous consumption will always be a consistent theme in Longshore’s work. What began as a series of paintings about Trophy wives, has evolved to include men, as well. Ashley’s most recent Gordon Gekko collection explores the theme of money and power from a man’s perspective.

BERGDORF GOODMAN NEW YORK, NY JANUARY 2018 New York fashion landmark Bergdorf Goodman was abuzz Thursday in celebration of the first female artist solo exhibit in its 100-plus-year history. Pop artist Ashley Longshore — known for her playful portrayals of pop culture icons such as Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Lil Wayne, Frida Kahlo and more — took over the store’s windows and seventh floor gallery to kick off a monthlong showcase of glittery goodness. “ “It means that if a self-taught artist from Montgomery, Alabama, can have five massive windows on Fifth Avenue and takeover the seventh floor of Bergdorf Goodman, anything can happen. It is an honor and unbelievably exciting. This also validates every collector who spent a dime on me over the last 24 years.”

VEUVE CLICQUOT PARTY
MARCH 2016
An exclusive collaboration between Veuve
Clicquot and pop artist Ashley Longshore
hosted in her New Orleans studio gallery
where the top tier of the label, Le Grand
Dame was poured. Veuve Clicquot flew in
female Wine-maker Delphine Labord from
France specifically for this special event.
Veuve Clicquot chose to collaborate with
the artist because she captures the spirit
of Veuve Clicquot so beautifully in her
paintings.
Named one of the leading female
entrepreneurs of the south by Forbes,
Longshore is very much inspired by Madame
Clicquot and the brand that she built. The
event was a huge success celebrating the
exquisite brand, the bombastic artist and
was an elegant scene with New Orleans’ elite
society.CLE DE PEAU HOLIDAY COLLABORATION JUNE 2016 The SHISEIDO Group’s high-prestige brand Clé de Peau Beauté (CPB) hosted an autumn/winter 2016 global press conference with the theme of Fearless Beauty, held at Shanghai’s Fairmont Peace Hotel on Thursday, June 16, 2016.

Ashley Longshore was present at the press event as a special guest.

“You Don’t Look Fat, You Look Crazy”
An Unapologetic Guide to Being Ambitchous
“
“When Hurricane Ashley landed in my office I was immediately
smitten. Her wild and unapologetic take on being an ambitious
woman is contagious, hysterical and completely motivational,”
said Regan Arts CEO Judith Regan. “She has created a beautiful
Oz-like world that everyone wants to live in. Immediately!”
Pour a glass of champagne, slip off your designer heels, pull up
your big girl panties and enjoy pop-artist extraordinaire Ashley
Longshore’s unapologetic, raw, and literally laugh-out-loud funny
guide to living an “ambitchous” life.
You Don’t Look Fat, You Look Crazy is a window into the world of
Longshore’s irreverent, glamorous, and stunningly visual
pop-art-filled life, where bedazzled flowers sit next to diamonds
and Valium boxes, Jesus holds a black Amex and Wonder Woman
dresses in Chanel. With tongue-in-cheek advice straight from her
canvas, such as “There’s No Crying At Bergdorf’s,” “Always Ask
For More,” and “What Would Blue Ivy Do,” Ashley’s honesty and
DGAF attitude will grab you by your Givenchy lapels and hit you
across the face with the donut you promised yourself you wouldn’t
eat.
So be confident, grab life by the Birkins, embrace your
“ambitchion,” and remember, you don’t look fat—you look crazy!
