31 Days of HELL-O-Ween 2020:
Nosferatu (1922)
It's day two--so far, so good! I can't do a "31 Days of HELL-O-Ween" and NOT include the 1922 "Nosferatu", Directed by F.W. Murnau and starring Max Schreck as Count Orlok/Nosferatu. Nosferatu is absolutely one of the creepiest depictions of a Vampire.

STEP ONE: Here is the quick sketch done with ballpoint pen on 11" x 17" gray cardstock.

STEP TWO: And here is the halfway point done with ink washes using watercolor brush.

STEP THREE: And this is the finished ink wash painting, with highlights done with white Gouache (opaque watercolor). Some of the warping and buckling on the bottom half of the painting scanned in as lighter gray, almost looking like a slight fog effect. I'll pretend I did something intentional for that effect.
