I thought I needed more variety in what subjects I am taking to IX and although I do have one small vampire painting I realised that I didn't have a Venetian vampire... so here we go. I am planning this to be in desaturated blues although that will be decided tomorrow over my breakfast coffee. I have left the doorway unpainted at the moment but the plan is to rough in the nosferatu in there tomorrow. I want the foreground to be fairly in focus but the background is to be in soft focus and blurry.
This is the tonal underpainting stage using my usual mix of Burnt Sienna and Dioxazine Purple thinned with Liquin and applied with a brush and rag.
Oil on linen 22" x 16".
