These inchies are for the 80s category of Valerie's (valechula) round 1 Inchie Mania swap. Each participant in this category will receive a row of four inchies. (I made a set for myself, as well.)
References from left to right:
-Patrick Nagel album cover art for "Rio" by Duran Duran (1982) and Prince on the movie poster for "Purple Rain" (1984)
-Michael Jackson and his one glove on a cassette tape (remember those?), with a nod to when his hair caught on fire during the taping of a Pepsi commercial (1984).
-Madonna, "Lucky Star" (1983) In high school, I used to love photocopying images from photos, magazines, books, etc., and going over them with fluorescent highlighters. Special thanks to Deavis (Dolores aka Eon's Momma) for the black mesh.
-"Flashdance" and legwarmers (1984), Rubik's Cube (1980), and Pac Man (1981).
It was extremely difficult to narrow down the icons I wanted to use for this set. Among the many that did not make the cut were Cyndi Lauper, Boy George, breakdancing, Jem & the Holograms, Smurfs, Rainbow Brite, Strawberry Shortcake, Hello Kitty, Mario Bros., Trapper Keeper, Swatch watch, MTV... The list of my 80s faves goes on. (Siiigh.)
As a result, I've decided I will have to make myself a complete set sometime in the future. :D
Thanks for spreading positivity!
