so there’s a lot of beautiful Rosie the Riveters out there, and I’ve compiled a set of them, so we can appreciate them all together :)
ps I don’t know the artists or women depicted for most of these, so if you have info, let me know and I’ll add it!

Photography doesn’t just come in digital or analog…sometimes it comes from within expressed in a few traces, a few lines.
Drew this a few years ago as a blind contour drawing in college. I still love it. #photoadayapril #somethingidrew #cameras http://instagr.am/p/Jp-GttRMvf/

Among the problems Nabokov’s Lolita poses for the book designer, probably the thorniest is the popular misconception of the title character. She’s chronically miscast as a teenage sexpot—just witness the dozens of soft-core covers over the years. “We are talking about a novel which has child rape at its core,” says John Bertram, an architect and blogger who, three years ago, sponsored a Lolita cover competition asking designers to do better.
Now the contest is being turned into a book, due out in June and coedited by Yuri Leving, with essays on historical cover treatments along with new versions by 60 well-known designers, two-thirds of them women: Barbara deWilde, Jessica Helfand, Peter Mendelsund, and Jennifer Daniel, to name a few. They don’t shy away from frank sexuality, but they add layers of darkness and complication. And like Jamie Keenan’s cover—a claustrophobic room that morphs into a girl in her underwear—they provoke without asking readers to abdicate their responsibility.

I wanted to post this the other day but it didn’t work…
Just a picture that I always find cute and it makes me smile. My “wonderful” sister says that this is what I look like in the mornings. By the way she IS a pretty rockin’ girl.
So thanks to the twitter universe, blogsfotografia asked me to add my blog on their site.
AWESOME!
Here’s a link to check them out.
