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

The Kiss

This illustration was another tribute to one of my early influences,  Patrick Nagel.  In the 80's you couldn't walk or shop anywhere without seeing his art.  I was mesmerized by the simplicity of his paintings and the beauty of his female models

One day I was curious as to what his style would lend to a vampire illustration and the results were amazing.  I ended up creating a lot of these and will share them all as they were incredibly fun to create.  This one is called "The Kiss".  Enjoy!
