Artist's Comments

This summer I'm working as a theatre usher at the local amusement park. Sometimes I get to work at the magic show, and that's actually fun ^^ (MOST of the time). So, I was inspired to draw a picture of Zatanna. Why? Because she's cool, and her costume actually has something to do with her powers (magic and whatnot).

I thought about doing a background, but I was just too darn lazy and didn't want to break out the brushes.

I never thought that I would be using this much solid black in any of my work. I always assumed that the colorists would do that stuff for me. I have since learned that you can't rely on colorists to do the work for you. Your work has to work as black and white even without the color.

Zatanna is copyright of DC Comics. This picture is copyright of me (Ashley K. Quigg)

Wow, this looks very impressive. I am a big Zatanna fan so I love to see her drawn so stylishly. I adore the exprssion you've given her.
:iconkthunter:
She looks so happy! Nicely done. Any chance we could get a Zatara? I'm becoming a big Zatara fan.

I love your grasp on perspective. You draw women so well without making them drooly fanservice!

You know who I can see her in a crossover with? St. Tail. ;)

LOL I haven't drawn St. Tail in a while XD Not since Visual Computing foundation year. :) I find women easier to draw then men. I dunno why.

Hey, how was Canada, eh?
:iconjulietcapulet:
You are such an amazing artist! :D
I'm super jealous.
And...she does kind of remind me of Saint Tail. XD haha

Canada was rocking! I didn't want to leave. Everyone is so friendly there, and there's almost less smoking than in New York. And I love crepes!

I kinda want to draw St. Tail now. I haven't drawn her, like, ever!

We should BOTH draw her XD

I'm totally going to draw a comic based off of your art trade with me. :D I bet that Absinthe goes through a lot of hairbrushes on a regular basis.

I love the black and white. And as for a background, she don't need it! She's Zatanna!

Wow, you really captured the beauty of the character without making her look like a silicone queen.

Interesting perspective. Really like your work.
