Vampire Lovesong

I first discussed a Lestat/Louis-inspired vampire piece with artists Christine Griffin at IX in 2022. At IX 2025, she surprised me with this fantastic piece. What you can’t quite tell from the photo, but you do notice in person, is that she used an iridescence wash over the entire piece, so it glitters with a fanatic luminance. And so not only does the piece harken back to Lestat and Louis, but has glimmers of Edward Cullen as well brilliant!
