Scenes (Not) from my Sketchbook #14: Vampires vampires everywhere....

Day 159
Yea well this post really has nothing to do with vampires per se other than I have had fangs on the brain lately.  I think my family is about done with my vampire obsession but pssh as long as they will make'em  I I will watch'em and read'em!  I finally got to watch True Blood (after reading the books so long ago), Being Human on BBCAmerica sometimes I will watch the American version but since we Americans are too dumb to get the British humor apparently I prefer the original series.  I even dabbled with the angsty Vampire Diaries.  And hmm and lets see there is always Sanctuary to watch or break down and watch that vampire with stupid hair movie series or even that Doctor Who episode .  I don't even miss seeing Brad Pitt as a bloodsucker anymore after all of this recent hunkiness!!  And don't get me started on hot werewolves of the True Blood variety, I mean damn. Definitely needed to erase Tom Cruise's Lestat, *shudder* if anyone needed a stake through the heart...although I think seeing Sean and Gus almost did it for me when I saw this episode, giggle.but I digress.....

Last year I went to this hotel in Las Cruces, New Mexico that had some fabulous, albeit very vampy art and architecture.


I dug up a group of these pictures while I completed some of my latest sketches.  And I still can't stop staring at them, mesmerizing.


This bar had a dark, gothy color scheme.  LOVE!





Little details like this woven metal snake on the bar of a table.
















Beautiful eh?





Be inspired!
