Beauty Meets Brains, pencil on paper and digital

another piece inspired by a visit to the computer history museum (the first was call girl).  there was this one particular ad of a woman stationed near a table-like computer.  the copy was hilariously demeaning towards the woman, something along the lines of, “if only she could cook as well as we can store the recipes!”  (don’t quote me on that, please).

in any case, this drawing is the impression it left.  i wanted to marry 50-60s glamour with (clunky) retro technology and a cheeky title.  i ended up tying in some 80s fashion and a ‘saturday evening post’ illustrative aesthetic (which was actually a surprising mistake).
