As if the mouthful of razor-sharp teeth, spidery, talon-tipped fingers and unquenchable lust for blood wasn't enough, this nosferatu's got attitude!

The Nosferatu Vampire has a motto this Halloween: “Hang Out With Your Fangs Out.” Original character hand drawn by David Baker of Art From The Blue Room.

For my Mod Pop Art tribute to the groundbreaking German silent horror film Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens, I created a dark, minimal 2-tone feel inspired by the grim but stark look of the movie and painted my rendition of three of its most iconic images, then combined them into one piece. To contrast the simplistic near-black brushwork, I created a vivid colorful graphic background with my signature gradient banding in greyscale, a Halloween-like rainbow of sorts. Then I fit everything nicely into an oval with a grainy vignette to sort of fuse vintage and modern into one look and tie it all together.

All these pieces were created using ink, watercolour paint and white acrylic paint.

I love the scene in Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens after Count Orlok bites Ellen Hutter's "lovely neck." As Orlok slowly looks up, with his twisted claw wrapped around the head of his victim, he stares directly into the camera for a beat, which makes for one of the creepiest scenes ever. As I often do, I captured my own still of this scene for reference and tried to pay tribute to the moment by painting in a dark, minimal 2-tone feel inspired by the grim but stark look of the movie. To contrast the near-black brushwork, I created a graphic background with my signature gradient banding in greyscale. Then I fit everything into an oval with a grainy vignette to sort of fuse vintage and modern into one look and tie it all together.

Good Mourning! Nosferatu here is enjoying his cup of B negative... but I'm more of a coffee fan myself...
