Bernadette Timko paints with a refreshing honesty and gritty domesticity reminiscent of the Kitchen Sink School of the 1950s. 'Omar's Birthday Leftovers' is the perfect example of this.

Heavily inspired by the old noir detective films from the 40s/50s. I love the stark contrast they were forced to use between tones because of the lack of colour.
Harvey did the Corner Box before Marvel in the 1950s.

@LittleGreenWolf Fun fact: while doing research for Shojo Manga's Lost Generation, I discovered that legendary shojo/josei mangaka Masako Watanabe did one of those. She's literally been working since the 50s.

Just for fun, a little homage to the #pinup calendars of the 50s. We'll be seeing more of Foxi around here soon, so watch this space!
I made a new #HazbinHotelOC and his name is Gabriel. He’s a cat demon and he died at 1950s. And I think him and Angel Dust will have a great bond together. Expect to see more drawings of him in the future.
