Demure to Daring: Pretty Nostalgic Magazine
I was commissioned by Pretty Nostalgic Magazine to produce 8 swimsuit illustrations, a background and title page for a 3 page spread on the swimsuit evolution for their 8th issue. The era's selected were 1870, 1890, 1920, 1930, 1940, 1950, 1960 and a special look at the million dollar mermaid. I also provided them with a small sea horse illustration, a letter on collecting old black and white photos and a little passage about and photo of myself.
