My sister keeps sending me these drawings.
I think she's trying her hand at digital artistry and is seeking my approval. That's fine. I know what it's like to be a budding artist; It's always nice to hear that you have talent, right?

I mean, I totally know already, but please feel free to keep telling me.
With her express permission - and a reminder that she needs to keep her ego in check when the compliments start flooding in - I have decided to share a couple of her best pieces on my blog. These are from a series called "Celebrity Tuesdays." I get one each week from her work address. (She's a civil servant - lots of time to draw.)
Don't know what Justin's doing on the left, but I'm totally digging this first celebrity creation! Now that Robin has his mask on he's ready to hop in the Batmobile and fight some crime. Maybe a crime against art.
