Then there's Bridget.
I think she knocks us all back for a loop with her original artwork. She is so fan-frickin-tastic that real words don't even portray her true awesome-ness. Let me show ya!

This was a self-portrait she had to do as an assignment in art class. Sou Kawaii oyobi kanbashii! (So cute and sweet!) It think it looks like a younger version, even if she thinks it doesn't look like her.

This is her original character Naiyru Mikage. Yes, she has cat-like ears and a tail for she is a (nice) cat-demon-who has a very elaborate story behind her. Bridget's working on a whole manga (Japanese style comic book) for this character. I've seen a few pages in progress and can't wait to see more.

I think the best part is that she indulges her Oneesan (Big Sister) with my obsession with Dragonball. This sketch is of Vegeta's eyes as Super-Saiyan (FYI hair and eyes change from black to blond and green in a powered-up mode.) I got to see the real drawing and the scan just doesn't do it justice. I don't know it you can see it but the shading on the pupils was spectacular. She swears it wasn't a trace, (I believe her!) and was drawn from memory of watching the show with John and I.
I love her artwork so much, I've commissioned her to draw a couple of scenes out of my stories. I can't wait to see what she comes up with!

Wow -- I've seen a few quick sketches before, but never ones so detailed! Maybe she has a future in the comic book industry!
