1920's Flapper Girls - Art Project Catchup!



Hey guys!

I hope you're all enjoying your Easter/Spring holidays so far, I know I am! 
It's nice to relax and have lie-ins in the mornings, but I have got quite a bit of homework to complete. 
Talking of homework (nice segway Fran), I've been completing an art project recently. I struggle sometimes to just sit down and do some art, so I really need to get on with this project now!

I thought I would share some of the work I've recently done. 
For my project, I am focusing on '1920's American Culture'. I've always been intrigued by this time period, so I wanted this to be reflected in my work.

A section of my work is focused on 'Women and their roles in the 1920's'. I wanted to do a couple of pages on the importance of Flapper Girls and how they changed women's roles.

Let me know in the comments!

I hope to share some more of my art project throughout the holiday,
Thanks for reading,
Fran ☺

1920's Love Affair - A Little Story


 Her hair was mahogany brown and bobbed above her shoulders. It almost always adorned with a glimmering diamond headband, which swayed from side to side when she danced.
She would stain her lips with warm hues; blood reds, juicy peaches and vibrant pinks.
Her fingernails were long and lady-like. She would often tap them on the table to the rhythm of her favourite songs. She wore mid-length flapper dresses, in which she would run and laugh about in.
 His hair was jet-black, slicked back and cut just above his ears. He would wear formal wear in everyday occassions; he was always dressed to impress. He would spend his days at his typewriter, it was old and dying, but his words always gave it new life.

They were a 1920's love affair.
