First Lady of Country — A Barbara Mandrell Pop-Art Tribute
The First Lady of Country — A Barbara Mandrell Pop-Art Tribute
Dive into the rich legacy of country icon Barbara Mandrell with The First Lady of Country, a bold and expressive 36″ × 48″ × 3″ pop-art icon that immortalizes her remarkable journey. Crafted using collected vinyl albums submerged in resin, each record serves as a time capsule—preserving the grooves and stories of her musical career. From the shimmer of resin to the vibrant painted portrait layered above, this piece captures both the sound and spirit of Mandrell’s artistry.
Barbara Mandrell wasn’t just a musical powerhouse—she set the standard for beauty and elegance in country music, embodying grace on and off the stage. This tribute reflects that same balance of strength and style: timeless, refined, and full of presence.
Two fascinating milestones enrich her story:
• Multi-Instrument Prodigy Before Age 11: Mandrell mastered the steel guitar, accordion, saxophone, piano, banjo, and more by her early teens, even touring with legends like Johnny Cash and Patsy Cline at just 14.
• Historic CMA Achievements: She became the first artist in history to win the CMA Entertainer of the Year award in consecutive years (1980 & 1981)—cementing her place as one of the most dynamic performers in country music.
Whether showcased in a music lover’s collection, a creative studio, or a home gallery, The First Lady of Country is more than a portrait—it is a vibrant homage to Barbara Mandrell’s enduring influence, celebrating her music, her elegance, and her lasting impact on the heart of country culture.
