Between the world of men and transcendent divinity there exists art. Art is the will to truth made physically manifest. It is more real then Reality. It is a dialogue triumphant over Time. – Andre Malraux

Bloody Mary


With her victim's blood pouring into her hands, this stunning female vampire revels in her bloodlust! This illustration was the first to be done for my gothic vampire series, Red Death, drawn exclusively in black and white with a touch of red.  On a side note, this is my tribute the vampire Sonja Blue in Sunglasses After Dark by Nancy Collins.

This image was used as the cover of the Winter 1996 edition of the magazine In Darkness Eternal.
