Dress Up Like a Pin-Up: “Behind in Her Packing”
This painting is by Joyce Ballantyne, who began painting pin-ups when she was recommended to Brown & Bigelow by Gil Elvgren. Her best-known work is probably the Coppertone girl (she re-drew it for Tally Embry Advertising when the original was lost in a fire).

This is an inspired feature idea.
Looking back I have to say it was images like this that most likely sparked my feminine side and there was a little jealousy in there too. Thanks for posting such a great piece of art.
