Publisher's Synopsis
Introducing the 1st issue of "Pin-Up Art - homage & study of the masters"
A New Era of Classic Pin-Up with a Unique Twist !! Discover a fresh evolution in the art of pin-up with Cedric Lab's "Pin-Up Art",an art book that combines the seductive charm of classic pin-up
with a new approach to individuality and authenticity. Inspired by 20th-century legends like Gil Elvgren, Alberto Vargas, and Earl Moran, this collection reimagines the genre by moving beyond the classic, interchangeable "ideal" woman often depicted by the masters. Instead, "Pin-Up Art" celebrates diversity and distinctiveness, featuring unique women with varied looks, personalities, and style.

creating a series of portraits where no two women are the same. What to Expect in "Pin-Up Art - volume 1: homage & study of the masters"
