Katana and Halo from Batman and the Outsiders

Drawn October 2009 by Kassidy Smith.
Kassidy is a big fan of the girls from the old 80's comics Batman and the Outsiders. She picked out a few of these old comics from the dollar boxes at our closest comic book shop.

Wonder Woman!

She's a Wonder, Wonder Woman.

Drawn by Kassidy, age 6, Feb. 2009. 

Kitty Pryde and the X-Men

Kitty Pryde in and out of costume "phasing" through a wall.

Kitty and Dazzler.

Storm.

Kitty and the X-Men show in only a few panels of the Dazzler comic that Kassidy got a couple of weeks ago but they made a strong impact.  Compound that with watching the new Wolverine and the X-Men cartoon and Kassidy has been inspired to draw a lot of mutants.

Supergirl vs. Wonder Girl on the moon.

Pencil drawing by Kassidy on 1/27.

Wonder Girl vs. Wonder Woman.

We picked up an issue of Wonder Girl for fifty cents at a comic book shop and Kassidy was inspired to have her fight Wonder Woman.  Daddy helped by writing in the words.

Clone War fever.

Ahsoka, Padme and Ventress.

Grevious, Obi-Wan and Anakin.

Padme lets her hair down.

Kassidy and Daddy love watching The Clone Wars.

Dazzler!

The Enchantress versus Dazzler by Kassidy 1/18/9.

Earlier this week I took the kids with me to some comic shops.  One of the shops had several boxes of old comics for a buck a piece so we grabbed a small stack.  One of the books was Dazzler #2 from 1981.  Kassidy likes it a lot.  Dazzler is a singer and wears roller skates so that pretty much covers everything a six year old girl needs in a superhero.  
Here is Dazzler skating by herself.
And here is a look at the old comic that inspired it all.  It's a shame they don't make superhero comics for girls.  (Well, allegedly, they make one but I can't find it anywhere.)

Fashion Catalog

Drawn by Kassidy, age 6 in fall 2008.

Kassidy thinks she is a fashion designer and likes to make her own catalog books.  She draws pages and pages of dresses,  pants, shirts, accessories etc.  These are some samples from a recent book I salvaged from her bedroom.  I like the swirly patterns and should steal them for my own art.

Purple and black ballerina.

Drawn by Kassidy (age 6) in October 2008. What I find interesting about this is that Kassidy shows that she is spinning by showing the back of the dancer. This is the first time I've seen her use this trick. I'm also just amazed by the composition and design. It has a strength energy to it that I would have to spend a lot of time trying to capture. Kids get that kind of thing naturally because they are not burdened by any kind of commitment to trying to nail the anatomy.
