Dejah Thoris I've wanted to paint Dejah Thoris for some time, and this is my first attempt. The pose is based on a belly-dance posture, the sword is a practice rapier and the clothing is based on a combination of eastern dance and classical Aikido robes. I wanted to create an image of female physical perfection - strength, grace and great beauty of form - to capture the essence of the Princess of Helium. Watercolor, 12" x 18"	John Carter Pencil sketch of the Warlord of Mars, ready as always for battle. Pencil sketch, 7" x 10"
The Tracker The complete illustration seen on the home page of this site. Pencil sketch, 10" x 7"	Tavia My personal favorite of all the princesses of Mars. Pencil sketch, 8" x 10"
Tara Portrait of one of the most inspiring of the princesses of Barsoom, Tara of Helium. Watercolor, 12" x 18"	Red Lady A portrait of a red noblewoman, apparently well-traveled. She wears a gold earring and a cape of orluk fur. Watercolor, 8" x 10"
Princess An attempt at illustrating a "typical" Barsoomian woman, long-boned, graceful and delicate in appearance, adapted to Martian gravity. Rather pleasant to think about, but doesn't make for particulary good cover art. After all, the hero should be taller than the damsel, no matter what planet he's from. Pen sketch	Untitled Somewhere on Barsoom. I don't know where. This is an early attempt at watercolor painting, about fifteen years after my last piece was done (in high school, c. 1985). Watercolor, 18" x 12"
