Barbie, Queen of the Prom by K Henderson
Barbie, Queen of the Prom, 24 x 36, oil on linen
All the the Vintage Game Board paintings I've been creating recently have been 'Boy' games (Cowboys, Indians, Super Heroes). I decided it was time to do a 'Girl' game. And what could be more Girly than Barbie, The Famous Teenage Fashion Doll?
My favorite barbie accessory is the Cat-Eye sunglasses. This game includes Boyfriend cards and Formal cards among others. And what teenage girl could live without her Telephone?
This game has a copyright date of 1960 from Mattel. In this game you are Barbie. You win if you are the first player to be crowned Queen of the Prom. But in order to win you must have a steady boyfriend, a prom dress and be elected president of a school club.
Batman Puzzle by K. henderson
Batman Puzzle, 30 x 36, oil on linen
British engraver and mapmaker, John Spilsbury, created the first jigsaw puzzle in 1700 when he mounted a map on a sheet of wood which he then sawed around each individual country. Spilsbury used his product to aid in teaching geography.
My Batman Puzzle was manufactured by Milton Bradley in 1966.
The Batman Cookies (also a puzzle since they are pieces put together in a logical way) were baked by me last week.
