Have you guys ever seen the TV show, or, the movie — "Dark Shadows"?
Hello friends and good evening to you! I hope your day has been awesome and you are getting to have a little bit of down time. Today I wanted to share a painting I did of Johnny Depp as his character Barnabas, from Dark Shadows. Dark Shadows was a hit TV show back in the late 60's early 70's that followed a wealthy family and the supernatural events that transpired there. In 2012, Tim Burton (my favorite director btw) decided to give it a re-boot and made a major motion film that highlighted the hilarity of Barnabas, the vampire that comes back to his home after two centuries buried underground. It's truly a hoot - I personally really enjoyed the movie even though I had never seen the TV show.
I'm a big fan of Johnny Depp so motivation to paint this was not lacking. This was done a couple of years ago and I actually entered it into a contest to win a chance to meet Tim Burton.. which would have been amazing since he is such an artistic inspiration of mine. I didn't win, but that's ok - I had a lot of fun working on it!

Anyway, let me know if you ever saw this tv series or the newer movie! Do you enjoy Tim Burton? I know there are some mixed reviews among people - some don't really care for his vision.
As always, y'all, thank you times a million for taking the time to say hello! Your continued support means the world to me! Until next time... STEEM ON!
