    Christopher Lee

    In tribute to Christopher Lee.

    Again using lots of knife, fiddling around with blend modes and with a splash of a red spray brush.

    Terrific is the right comment I guess. Seriously, a fantastic style!
    I recently learned why he possibly was such a credible Count Dracula. His mother was actually an Italian noble women from the marquis Carandini family (not a countess, but a marquise anyway), apparently a beauty in her age portrayed also by the English painters John Lavery, Oswald Birley and Olive Snell.
    I think Christopher Lee's fame and popularity is far greater than one would expect of his relatively poor major awards and prizes collection.
    Panta rei (everything flows)!

    Reminds me of those moments from those movies when the heroine is in the old mansion fumbling around the dark with an unlit candelabra and a sudden lightning flash reveals the vampire in high contrast. It's in that category of "Things that make you go YIKES!"

    Very cool.
