Paint Party Friday - Vampire inspired mini work of art!

Ok so these mini canvas' are soooooooooooooo addictive!! I love painting as much detail as possible in such a small space! I've got lots more ideas in my head for more of these but here is the second in my series of mini paintings on canvas.

It's almost October so I thought some Halloween inspired art might be in order I love vampy girls, zombies and all sorts of things like that and I have been watching the new season of True blood and I think that inspired me even more (I love that show so much)!!!! :0)

I was thinking that if I keep creating ladies like this I need to start giving them names so I shall start with this one 'Angelique' :0) She looks like an angel but I'm sure those fangs could do some damage.
 I LOVE purple I think it's up there as my most favourite colour!
 I painted the sides black!
 And of course I'm going to turn this lovely lady into a pendant!!!
 Such a great way to brighten up a desk space!!
Just thought I'd show this pic of my hand next to the painting to give you an idea of size. The canvas measures 8cm x 10cm!!

I shall be adding Angelique to my etsy shop in the near future :0)

Hope you are all having a great week so far, yay for the weekend!!!

  19. Wow this just gave me a flash back from when I was little and playing with Barbie and the like. I had these tiny little dolls with real long hair and I swear Angelique reminds me of one. I love this size your working in. Great job Sistah!

  20. fantastic hair! Now, I'm thinking I might do that to my own hair for Halloween. Glad you stuck your hand in for perspective - what a great little size!

  21. I am so in love with her. She is oddly angelic and oh so naughty too. I am addicted to True Blood. I just finished the last season, and I can't believe we have to wait a whole year! This last season was great!!!

    I can't believe the detail you were able to include in such a tiny piece. I am really impressed!!!
