Celebrating Labor Day with Rosie the Riveter – We Can Do It!

Celebrating Labor Day with Rosie the Riveter – We Can Do It!

Happy Labor Day Weekend!!! In the 1800’s the Labor Movement began to pay tribute to the contributions and achievements of American workers. In 1894 this tribute became a Federal Holiday observed every first Monday in September.
So, here’s to you America!!! Thank you for all you do every day. Some of you work with the public directly. Some of you work behind the scenes to make our lives easier and better. Whatever your occupation- today is YOUR DAY! CELEBRATE!!!
Labor Day is the perfect time to show case one of my latest pieces:
Rosie the Riveter
Rosie first appeared in 1943 to inspire the women munitions workers who had joined the labor force and war effort. She represented all the women. Rosie has graced the magazine cover for the Smithsonian in 1994, became the stamp art in 1999, joined the campaign trails in 2008, and 2010 was recommissioned by Australia to help celebrate their first female Prime Minister.
Now Rosie is here to help us celebrate and highlight the women in today’s labor force.  She is on stretched canvas measuring 36x36. She sparkles in GLITTER with a clear protective coating.
WE CAN DO IT !!!..... and WE DO !!!


Rosie is available for purchase or commission. To inquire, please contact Swan Studios Inc at
