This sweet little snowman is now for sale: perfect on mugs, postcards, greeting cards, you name it! 

An old Arrowette redesign I had a lot of fun with back in 2018! Pre-Wacom tablet upgrade, though, so the sensitivity on the line-art is a bit...blocky.

A quick intro from me and what I’m about! May as well get it out the way and get to the good stuff quicker, eh?

The old-ish stuff! (part 2) Classic Batgirl!

Now we get to the good stuff, AKA, Batgirl!

(Done pre-Wacom tablet upgrade.)

Now if you were to ask me what my favourite incarnation of Barbara Gordon is, honestly, I'd be torn between two:

--Batgirl of Burnside

and

--1966 Batman

Interestingly enough; Batgirl of Burnside draws incredibly heavy on Yvonne Craig's influence on Batgirl, and it's not hard to see why.

See, originally, Batgirl as an identity wasn't meant to be a side-kick (that was a 1990's post-zero hour retcon! And a messy one at that!)

Batgirl was basically meant to stand on equal footing with Batman; she was an ally, not a copy. Inspired by but not working for nor under. That was pretty much established in her debut episode, in fact! She loved what he stood for, but had her own way; a much more empathetic, working-with-the-people approach!

That carries on to the current run today! So, wheras Bruce nowadays is happy to inspire fear and act as a semi-urban-legend, Barbara wants to be right on the street with the people--using a combo of criminal psychology with the most updated tech!

It's fascinating really!

But I digress.

While Burnside put emphasis on the practical design, the 1960's were all about stage presence! Something I wanted to capture here, using Yvonne Craig's history as a champion Ballerina!

It's actually a lot of fun to see how or if you can truly meld fight-coreography with the grace of dance...and ya know, I think it can be done. But I wanna explore and push it more!

I’ve opened a redbubble shop! And just in time, in fact, to debut my new design sets “Figures”--a series of prints and paintings inspired by the graceful art of figure skating! 

Come check it out; at the least you might get some gift ideas!
