new wave girl 005

 

In honor of the Labor Day New Wave Marathon on The AIR today, we bring you a digital painting of Lavender Menace, based on a pose from last Spring at a Harry Potter-themed session of Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School. We have taken liberties and turned Lavender into a “New Wave Girl” in an appropriate setting, toting a classic album by DEVO.

The reason for this is to remind you that, all day today, you can tune in to The AIR and listen to a marathon of Sydney’s Big Electric Cat, which is our normally weekly two-hour showcase of classic music from the New Wave era. Today we’re running nine episodes beginning at 7 AM. Ms. Menace has been drafted into our promotional efforts.
