I wonder if he's looked at a lot of Hogarth? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gin_Lane I like the way the architecture is so oppressive in his work - almost like a cemetery. Do you know if he works from models? I'm asking because there is a strong sense of posing in the fight scenes - which turns them into more of an aesthetic experience as opposed to a visceral experience.

An unconventional representation of a vampire. There are no fangs, no wide-open eyes, no crosses and no blood. Just two figures hunched over in the darkness, one with it's mouth apparently at the neck of the other. More is implied than described.

Rae - It's a well-made site, well organized. I keep thinking about that little whisker that appears on top of the frame and elsewhere throughout the site. At first I thought it was just ornament - just something to make the frame un-framelike. But the more I look at the rest of the work it seems like it is a recurring form. It appears as hair, beards, ears, horns, etc. What was the thought behind it?

all art should be comforting, literal, narrative, perhaps somewhat erotic, and depict rationally classical articlesubtitleject matter, then your taste in art coincides quite easily with those of that noted German art connoisseur and would-be artist from the early twentieth century, Adolf Hitler.

  I agree - this is what a sketchbook should look like. He's building a catalog - a library of images, ideas. There's a hand, there's a foot - it's all there without a lot of editing. So - he's just allowing these things to happen. He's allowing this growth to occur probably before he can label it this or that. By the way - judging from the color of the paper and the rounded corners - he is undoubtedly drawing in a Moleskine®

You're right - Wal-Mart did royally screw it up. But - in that screwing up may have made it even more sinister than you had planned. Another thing - when I was looking at it in class - for some reason I was viewing it as the light being on the right side - whereas your intended orientation locates that light on top. Have you looked at it in different orientations? If so - how do those orientations affect your judgment or interpretation of the work?
