Vampire Lord

Here I was going through a classic art phase. I saw the paintings of early Dutch painters on display at the Getty, and thought to myself what it would look like if that sort of soft oil painting look was applied to an artists impression of a vampire.

The Vampire Lord was an idea I had from the standpoint of a painter being commissioned to do a portrait of a vampire. I used a randomly selected photo as the base image, and used 16th century Dutch paintings as a style guide. I kept the final image soft and slightly unfinished looking to go with the idea that an artist realized who or what he was painting and he just wanted to get it over as quickly as possible.
