The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

When I paint, I like to think over a certain image for awhile, letting it build up in my head until it is an obsession, and then I release it into the world through my medium. I have found that when I paint something I don't paticularly have an interest in, it is not well done, and often remains unfinished. But when it has become an obsession, it is a masterpiece. A good example is a thing I am calling "The Damned School" not about vampires or zombies. It is a school I have had several dreams about. It looks run down, there is a destroyed building beside it, and a concentration camp looking factory row beside it as well. I can tell you everything, from the state and style of the bridge you must cross to get there, to the type of tiles inside the classrooms. Crumpled paper and leaves litter the hallways, lined with yellow lockers. In the boiler room, a person has set up shop; they live there, in the school. Every time I visit in the land of dreams, i am drawn to that area, and to make one of my own, as instructed.

But then I have been asked to paint a landscape, seascape, a friend, and they come out well below my standards. I have no passion for those things. Only for my personal obsessions. The school reamins unpainted, just a rough copy, but I had a long time painting fallen angels after I wrote a poem about one(in the journal if you want to read it) I must have painted six before my passion for it wore down. I plan on painting a series of pictures about the school.
