awesome and very much in time. boo! 😀
oh and I’d like to say: the model had the hardest job.
sitting on a bar stool like that looking careless is an arduous task indeed.
I had a few pro photoshoots for my business portraits, nothing THAT fancy, but if you work with fashion photographers, they let you sit in a pose that’s stunningly elegant for the beholder yet actually model yoga… for advanced students!
My sister is a painter and she used to try to get me to sit still so she could draw me and I would always take off running in the opposite direction.
Model yoga I cannot even begin to comprehend!
It was calendar art for a company named Brown & Bigelow, they specialized in pin-up art and were based in Chicago (I think). Instead of depicting a “witch” it represented a kittenish model dressed up (or barely dressed) for Halloween. The painting is called Riding High and the model is Marilyn Hanold (I misidentified her as Dusty Anderson!)
A sexy witch beats an old fat witch with a wart on her nose any day of the week.

Witty picture.
Witty, wily and winsome 😉 .

Heaven forefend! That bodice is a miracle of the scaffolders’ art!

I can’t help but wondering what happens to your lungs and stomach when toting around that kind of scaffolding…
Eye-popping Halloween Candy 😉
My guess is that it’s from the early nineteen-fifties?
So glad that the poster version shows black pumps! lol
Much better than white high heeled sandals!
Why is the broom in the painting supported on wires?

Love that old pin-up art! — YUR
