As a fan of animation, I was a fan of the Batman: The Animated Series. The show ran on the Fox Network from 1992-1995.  I became a bigger fan when Harley Quinn was introduced in 1993. The fact that Arlen Sorkin first voiced the character only added my guilty pleasure of watching Saturday Morning cartoons...

Shawn Andrews - Harley Quinn

2015.01 Harley Quinn

Originally from the San Francisco Bay area, Shawn Andrews was inspired by Jim Lee, Todd McFarlane and Marc Silvestri and studying the works of Vallejo, Bell, Olivia and Frazetta. Through studies fine arts and figures became Andrews focus, dissuaded from comics by his professors...

In 2012 still chasing the dream Andrews joined the comic convention circuit bringing his fine art and pinups, using fully rendered pencil techniques to showcase stunning images of comic industry icons...

I am always amazed at the work that can be produced by a pencil, bringing out the shades and textures...very nice..

Terrell Jefferson - Harley Quinn

2014.04.12 Asbury Park Comic Con, Asbury Park, NJ

Terrell Jefferson (JTonz) had a small table at the Con, yet he was totally comfortable with that. His work displayed on the table showed skill and a style that called to me. We talked briefly about his style, which I referred to as having sharp angular features with a soft touch. His subjects included Hellboy and Michael Jackson.. when we discussed a subject for his sketch, he suggested Harley, to which he provided a great sketch with Harley mimicking the Fanny Brice stamp. 

Looking at his deviantart page, I was really taken by his drawing of The Horseman of Death (wish I had seen that at the con!)...

Fanny Brice in 1910 became a headliner for the Ziegfield Follies, was a comedian, singer, actress, radio personality (The Baby Snooks Show) and was the subject of the Barbara Streisand film Funny Girl. (Never thought I would be including Streisand in this blog)...

Harley Quinn was introduced into the DC world in 1992, created by Paul Dini and Bruce Timm for the  Batman: The Animated Series television program...
