Spitting Image: 500 to 1

rz31thisAs you all know from my many posts, that I am a big Rob and Sheri Moon Zombie fan. My husband and I were joined by my brother and 2 of our friends on Sept 1st for the special 1 night screening of Rob’s new movie 31. I was immediately inspired to draw Sheri’s character Charly. I was actually anxious to draw her prior to seeing the film but then after I saw it I was determined more then ever.

This is the 3rd portrait I have done of Sheri. I have had the honor of meeting her twice and giving my work to her one of those 2 times. Maybe one day I will run into her again and be able to give her this piece as well. She is not just beautiful and talented. She an overall really sweet person and is very loyal to her fans, making her that much more inspiring to me.

I call this new piece 500 to 1. Anyone else who has seen 31 understands my inspiration for the name of this piece. Anyone who hasn’t seen the movie yet will understand it once they do.

For all my fellow Zombie Heads out there, prints of this piece are available in my Etsy shop! See more of my portrait work including past pieces I have done inspired by Rob and Sheri at the Spitting Image page of my portfolio site.

Spitting Image: 9 Lives

2

I’m back behind the drawing pencil again. It had been way too long.

I had always wanted to do a portrait of Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman. Batman Returns has always been my favorite of all Batman movies (still is). I just felt that Tim Burton brought the Gotham I always invisioned to life if that film. I still even use my Catwoman cup from McDonald’s that I have had since I was a kid. It has been my cup I use when I paint for rinsing my brushes. I just can’t seem to part with it no matter how much paint gets in it ha ha. Am I a huge Batman fanatic … no but I have a lot of love for this film and Michelle’s portrayal of the character. I find her to be the most convincing and sexiest version of Catwoman. Everyone that has tried to play her since just hasn’t fit the bill to me. She was so convincing and fit the role so well that no one seems to compare.

That is until the TV show Gotham. Camren Bicondova as a young Selina is like watching a younger version of Michelle on my TV screen each week. So impressed on the casting of this beautiful and talented young actress. They really couldn not have found any one better for this role. When I see her on Gotham I picture her older self as Michelle’s version of the character in Batman Returns. Which is what inspired this new piece,

I call this one 9 Lives…..

So I have been spending some of my free time these last few months as a judge for the Ax Wound Film Festival. It has been sortof a hush hush project in the works but I am excited to finally bring my followers up to date on it.

Hannah Neurotica reached out to me to be a judge a while a go and I could not have been more honored and excited. Many of you may recognize the name as I am a huge supporter of Woman In Horror Month. Well Hannah is the mastermind behind all of it!

I got to kick it in my pjs from the comfort of my home and watch horror movie shorts directed by amazingly talented woman from around the globe. Perfect gig for me! On top of it could this logo for the film festival be any cooler….
