Lichtenstein would not have approved but I can appreciate when someone tweeks artistic liscense to fit their own. The above is based on 'Kiss V', 1964 and below based on 'In the Car', 1963.

Rosie the Riveter Gets a Makeover

Rosie the Riveter

The "We Can Do It" image gets a bit of a revamp, Zombie Style! Rosie the Riveter, as the image came to be called, is a cultural icon representing the women who worked the factories in World War II. The actual term Rosie the Riveter, coined in a 1942 song written by Redd Evans, was never associated with the image until it's resurgence in the 1980's. In actuality, "Rosie" was 17 year old Geraldine Hoff (later Doyle) who was working as a metal-machine stamping operator.

Today, Rosie enjoys keeping the world zombie free and portraying the Awesomeness of women in general.
