Bela Lugosi
412. BELA LUGOSI - An acrylic painting on a 9 x 12 size canvas board. It was a private commission.
For over 30 years I have been receiving phone calls about every two weeks from a client in California, Jim Pianfetti. I should correct myself; after 30 years of gabbing about all sorts of things, including our families and our health, he is a "friend" from Los Angeles.
Jim has purchased more artwork from me than anyone else; spare time paintings, book and magazine covers and story illustrations, and fanzine artwork.
But lateley, Jim has asked me to paint scenes from horror movies; he sends me movie photo stills from "Dracula" and "Frankenstein," and I have rendered them into small paintings. This is one from the classic movie, "Dracula," featuring Bela Lugosi..
