One thing to note here - most of today's images, like those above, are photographs rather than scans of the originals. As you can see quite easily if you look at the red border lines, things can get a little distorted that way. But, moving right along...

If you prefer your fantasy a bit more up-to-date, you can follow the evolution of everybody's favorite Khaleesi through some of his artworks...
...or perhaps more classic fantasy, such as Alice...
...or Dracula...
...or even simply nameless faeries...
You can also find him rendering characters from other comics and media, such as Barbarella...
...Drunna...
...and Valentina...
...and, all sorts of beautiful renderings...
Oh! But, i haven't told you the best part.

We'll be back once more today with another story or two, and more artwork (that isn't from his blog, so go ahead a peruse the lovely works there while you're waiting)
all art by Esteban Maroto
