love is a battlefield

80′s sketch, the sydney girl.

I have a current obsession with the 80′s. I watched ‘Girls Just Want to Have Fun’ last
night with Sarah Jessica Parker and Helen Hunt when they were young. It made me
wish I was a teen in that time. Seemed so carefree and fun.

    >I love that movie. I've watched it countless times. I was a teen back in the 80's. While I listen to music of today and also music of the 60's, etc., I'm still a big fan of the music of the 80's. I listen to it all the time. I also still love all those teen movies that came out back then.

    >Cool sketch! I love the skirt.

  • The Haute-Shopper

    >Once again… great job with your sketches! And great choice for an 80's playlist. There's just something about the 80's that spells carefree fun… I think Cyndi Lauper and early Madonna are perfect for that as well. It just makes you want to be a girl and dance around in neon-colored frilly gear :)
