Blood and Gold

My entry in Pixelbrush.net's current Event: Faces.

This is my somewhat artistically interpreted portrait of artist Cristine Griffin (aka ) as a Vampire Queen.

Please DO NOT use without permission--not just out of respect for me, but out of respect for Cris, who was kind enough to let me turn her into a vampire and paint her portrait.

Also, I just wanted to note, while it's not a direct copy of any existing jewelry, the necklace was heavily inspired by the work of Beth Church ~bchurch. I adore her work. You should definitely check out her gallery.

Also, some of the fabric textures in this image came from: [link]
