Soul Devourer is its name, cause that is what it does. Devouring souls. Resembles vampires but does not belong among them. You can meet its reflection almost anywhere. I say 'its reflection', because the real one lurks in the dark corners of your mind, waiting for the first opportunity to use your emotions, fears, loves, hates or joys against you and devour your soul. It does so for the destruction itself. Because when your soul is gone, the demon fades and dissapears as well. Done mostly in pencil, but I made some lines with black felt-tipped pen and coloured it with coloured pencils. I darkened it a little using Ulead Photo Express.

Wow.. it's so very bleak. Brilliantly done. The use of colour works very well. I really like it. Simple but powerful... I wish I could think of a long comment, because they're always fun to receive, but all I can say is how much I really like this piece. Well done!

Wow, excellent job of conveying the concept of what the demon does visually.
I often feel like I got one these things eating away at my soul; drawing out all the color of my being until there is nothing left but a dried, vapid shell.

:-) Helena Štěpánová replies: "Thanks for your kind comment."

Oh, that's great!
Like a kiss of bitter-sweet goodbye...
I cannot say why but it makes me kind of happy...maybe it's the "burning darkness"...the way her energy gives him life, intensity...I love it^^

You wouldn't send me a poster of it, would you ? 12
