Hirsute Heroines Book Series is a collection of illustrations by artist Hayley Blatte. In Hirsute Heroines the idea of the passive pinup girl is turned on its' head transforming the cliched manicured muse into a dynamic diva both alarming and androgynous. These pencil illustrations combine images of glamour and eros with the seemingly antithetical ideas of the "grotesque" and "taboo" raising questions as to what is female beauty and identity in the modern western world. Hirsute Heroines Volume 1, 14 pages - $10. Hirsute Heroines Volume 2, 14 pages - $10.
