This is a commission I recently completed for a guy who saw my stuff at 2011 B.C. Comic Con in Birmingham. I must admit I'd never heard of Power Girl before, but she was pretty fun to have a go at. I am always available for commission work for just pencil or inks or colours digital or traditional paints too. Please email me if you want an original piece of artwork by me.
