C.F. Payne: "Portrait of Bram Stoker"

Chris Payne is one of America's preeminent illustrators and art educators; from children's books to TIME magazine covers to features for ROLLING STONE ("This Day in Rock History") and READER'S DIGEST ("Our America") he switches between serious and satire readily and with ease. He's been creating portraits of important artists, writers, actors, and musicians, sometimes as demos for students but often for his own amusement. When we saw this vampiric portrait of Dracula's creator we had to have it.
