Description Just a quick work of Catwoman.

I decided to use some of my favorite elements of her numerous costumes over the years- the leather and boots from her modern costume, the mask from her 1980's grey costume, the hair from her 90's look. My sister had the idea to put her in an alleyway, and the concept just grew from there. No matter where she goes, she can't get away from Batman... I *almost* feel sorry for her.

Great idea to combine different elements from previous costumes together in one picture. Love the shadow of Batman on the alley wall ,so true but I think Catwoman doesn't want to get away from Batman does she?

I love the pose, costume and concept. I wish the boots were high heels. I have to find those hidden bats

I thought about doing the heels, but I just *love* the boots from her new costume, which are more like fashion combat boots... and the folded leather at the top is so much fun to draw! Glad you like it!

Two semesters of Art School help, dear. You're improving quickly, too. We need to keep up our art sessions...

Go look back at some of your work from some time ago, and compare it to the one you did today. Look at the quality of work on the faces, compared to your Shayera one. You're already 'better than you are'.

There's a couple in the trash bin, one on the wall (graphiti style, but very dark) and a *hint* of a second shadow coming from the alleyway on the right.
