This is Rachel, the last of the Postmodern Beauties. I was inspired to draw this gal after reading an article in The Guardian about an exhibition at the V&A that I would give my right arm to go to. The exhibition is called Postmodernism: Style and Subversion 1970 - 1990. It features art and design from that period which I am very fond of. Done well, Postmodern design/art is the bee's knees. Think ID magazine in its 1980s heyday, over the top Grace Jones video clips and wild memphis furniture. The exhibition opens on the 24th September and runs until the 15th January 2012 so perhaps I might pop on a plane some time during that period and have a look!
...and now for something completely different! I have a new mirror in my shop. It is Teddy the Aristo-kitten. I think he was made to be on a lady's posket mirror, don't you?
All the best for the week ahead!
I love the mirrors! The Postmodern Beauty looks so regal. Lovely, Sam!
