The above is an oil painting I did a few years back. Yes, I painted it even before the vampires on True Blood were crying blood tears. I use this image as my brand. It’s on my business card, my website, and my jewelry store. I’ve always loved this painting and it’s mood. I moved last year and when I was unpacking I couldn’t find it. I totally freaked and tore the house upside down! But lo and behold, it turned up. There are a few paintings I have done that I just won’t part with (and could never stand loosing), and this is one of them. I decided to paint it again… this time in watercolor and ink (below).
