Blood Between the Lines

Commissioned by my good friend, Heartfire, themed towards Halloween.

Heart is a really nice guy; I haven't a negative comment to say about him, which is why it was so interesting drawing him in such an evil and completely morbid setting. I don't know about the rest of you, but I have an insane fascination with inner demons, the dark side to the otherwise more prevalent light. The point at which your sanity decays into a soup of emotions of lustful hatred, beautiful anger and overjoyed sorrow. Madness engulfs the mind and rationality flies out the window as you find yourself doing things that would boggle you otherwise. At least, this is the mindset I find myself in every time I draw a pic like this, and the experience is intoxicating.

Hope you all like it, especially you, Heart.
