I was between tasks and wandering YouTube when I came across Lita Ford’s song and music video “Close My Eyes Forever”, which gave me the idea to kick out a new vampire-themed render that continues a similar theme as the “Promise” series.
Vampires are one of those concepts that sit on the edge between darkness and light so perfectly – they’re dangerous, killers, but their eroticism and attraction is undeniable. As such, they’re fun to depict in artwork in the same way that I take Giger-esque aliens and put them in ambiguous scenes.
Like the “Promise” series images, I’ll write a short accompanying story fragment to go with the pic and put it up on my main web site.
Take a look and decide for yourself – is the victim willing, resigned, or … ?

This might sting a little ...

Many many years ago I had the pleasure of meeting James A Moore, his wife Bonnie, and his sister Ro, at Dragon*Con.
Jim is one of those authors that reaches down into the pit of your guts and makes them whimper quietly in a corner, and in gratitude for him holding my hand as it were over the years at conventions (a scary ordeal that goes way beyond anything even Jim could write), I came up with this image of one of Jim’s most feared and loved nasties – Rufo the clown.
