Inspired by Bram Stokers 'Dracula'. Here Lucy is being entranced by Dracula. She is still innocent before he begins feeding on her blood each night. I wanted the background to feel like a maze, like there is no escape.

Wow, this is amazing. What medium did you use? I bet it is even more beautiful as the real thing! I love the palette you used for this, and you're right; that background really adds to it.

:-) Erika Schulz replies: "This is a paper collage. The whole thing! It took forever. Mostly because I kept running out of papers as I was working. The papers I use come in very small pieces. It is one of my largest collage pieces to date at 12 by 14 inches. "

oh my, paper collage? i didn't know so much detail could be done with that, (the dress amongst other things) or did you add on shadings and etc? however you made it, it's ...extraordinary! I've put a link to your page on mine, since it's all so beautiful! wish i could put comments on so many more than one but i don't know how many ways there are to say that it's wondrous.

excuse my raving here... I'll stop now. 10 keep it up none the less!

:-) Erika Schulz replies: "Thanks for your comment and for adding me too your list. I'm gratefull."

wow! a paper collage? no way! this is beautiful, in fact, it reminds me of a scene from a book i used to have- the bit in 'Aladdin' where he's in the dungeon and Jafar comes disguised as the old man.

This is so good. The maze-like background really sets the mood; there is no escaping Dracula’s lure . . .
