// I Want To Be The Girl In The Wig Commercial by Raymond Pettibon is a 1989 lithograph that captures a sense of irony and cultural commentary through minimalistic line art. The piece features a black-and-white drawing of a woman's face, rendered in Pettibon’s characteristic comic-book style, with bold lines and simplified details. The text below her face reads, I want the girl in the wig commercial, a statement that adds a layer of humor and critique. The artwork reflects Pettibon's exploration of media influence and the superficiality of commercial imagery, subtly mocking the allure and idealization perpetuated by advertising. This piece invites viewers to question the constructed personas and unrealistic aspirations that dominate popular culture, highlighting Pettibon’s critical yet playful approach to societal commentary.

What is Comic Strip Art?
Comic strip art refers to artwork that utilizes the subject matter and commercial printing techniques found in comic strips. In the 1960s, a group of artists began creating paintings that incorporated Ben-Day dots—commonly used in comics and advertising—to produce highly graphic designs in bright colors, using traditional art media.
