Hey, folks
I thought while everyone was stuck indoors during this self-isolation and quarantine, I would finish this piece so we could all remember what it was once like to go outside, when we weren't wearing hazmat suits and carrying around double-long yardsticks to keep others at bay.
I wanted to do another beach pin-up inspired by the fashions of the 1950s. One that features the Hollywood glamour of a bygone age of fashion and cinema. The swimsuits and the styles of hair and makeup were so bold and alluring, it's something that keeps me inspired.
And, if I haven't said it enough times already, I had my girlfriend, lilyrjensen , on my mind the entire time I was putting this piece together. She and I share a similar love for the era and it's style. So, I did it in a large part in tribute to her.
Plus . . . she has this exact swimsuit in red, so that always keeps me inspired.
Enjoy, and stay safe and healthy out there!
