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

Duran Duran: Rose Arcana


This illustration is the fouth image for my gothic vampire series, Red Death.  Interestingly enough, the title of this illustration is inspired by the song of the same name on the album So Red the Rose by the Duran Duran spinoff band, Arcadia.

A pen & ink version of this piece was published in the 1996 chap book A Free Heart then later in the 1997 edition of An Ancient Death is the Most Beautiful, a vampire chap book.






Medium: Graphite, Ink, and Prismacolor on sketch paper
Dated: 1995
Original size: 11"x 14"
Original Art: Sold at TRF 2005
