Remember the 60's and the latest painting.

Last week was wet and I had flu so I worked on my latest painting, looked at old magazines and pottered around, my son had gone back to Brisbane and the beer fairy was worn out so he slept a lot so a very quite week.

 and fiddled with this one still not happy withe the eye but some paintings are never right.

I bought this magazine every month in the 60'sand have kept them all these years it was a great time to be a teenager, things were changing women were reaching out and finding a place in the world other than married and mothers but you still were considered a old maid if you weren't married by 30ys but these days no one is referred to as a old maid that term has gone out use so thats a good thing.

But the models were not stick thin and curls were in fashion along with long straight hair so you were covered both ways.

A model smoking on the cover now that's something you don't see today.

 And I always loved tweed coats

 Dressers were still worn a lot

 John was still alive and kicking, and who has nude pictures of him and Yoko.

 

They have moved every time I moved and look a bit tattered and torn but it's a trip down memory lane to read them so I thought i would share them with you, these are all english mags but England was the flavour of the month at that time.
