It’s sad when really great artists pass away, as it means there will never be new work from that creator.  In honor of the passing of Vampirella artist Jose “Pepe” Gonzalez, today we’re giving you a glimpse of the work he did with vampire from outer space.

Yes, there are a great number of entries that feature attractive women in these Art Appreciation Moments of the Day, and while it is nice to gaze upon the female form, it is more interesting to see how female artists portray the form.  Here’s a fun Catwoman piece by Jessica Hickman, for the Batman Archives Sketch Cards Series. My drawing on one of Mark McHaley’s Batman Archives sketch cards. He then colored it as only he can.  I love how he lays down the paint and can get such detail with simple brushstokes. via Deviant Art

What I really like about Marcio’s designs is they are simple.  Clean lines, not a lot of detail, but just enough for each of his characters to be distinct from one another.  You’ll have to check out his Deviant Art page to see his renditions of other superheroes – because he’s got a lot of them.  And yes, this is the same artist who did the Pheonix image a while ago. via Deviant Art

Gwen is still a fan favorite to this day probably because of it. This piece…

Ever since he took up drawing Catwoman covers for DC Comics, I can’t think about Selina Kyle without thinking about Adam Hughes.  One of my favorite artists of all time, Hughes finds Ms. Kyle one of his favorites too. I miss drawing Selina. It sure was fun with her; lots of different moods. She’s the quintessential femme fatale. And YES, I’m aware the she resembles Audrey Hepburn, LOL. My personal inspiration for Selina Kyle is Ms. Hepburn, circa 1954-57. My favorite face ever. My personal inspirational cocktail for Catwoman is: 70% young Audrey Hepburn 20% Liz Taylor from CAT ON…
