Sixties Redhead No. 5

The Sassoon haircut, peace signs, white go-go boots, hot pants, anti-war demonstrations, graffiti—the hallmarks of the mid- to late-1960’s, and it’s all here in this painting, featuring an outfit I designed in 1967. In the spirit of full disclosure, this artist (moi) DID wear go-go boots, DID wear hotpants, and DID have a Sassoon haircut, exactly as depicted here. And “The Graduate” (film posters on the right), starring a very young Dustin Hoffman, was the highest-grossing film in 1967, winning an academy award for Best Director.

I was a child of the 1960s and I remember it all. Excellent detailed artwork that is a culture homage to the 1960s Jayne. Love that pose!

Artist Reply: Thank you so much, Vernonette. I was a young adult back then, so I was in the thick of it then! Have you looked at my other "Sixties Redheads" (1-4)?
