Hi again... Okay, to make up for the unfortuanate mishap, and to test my site to make sure things are on the up-and-up, I'd like to share another drawing. This isn't completely finished (I do touch ups for what seems like eternity - lol), but I thought I'd share. :D
This is for my final in Life Drawing - we had to come up with an illustration depicting a scene featuring the human figure. ;) So, the first thing I think of is DS...of course. lol :P This is supposed to be Barnabas and Julia by the sea [I had to crop the picture, and the scan doesn't show the detail as good as in person, unfortunately. :( And you can't see the entire scene. B&J are walking forward; Barn's holding a towel while Julia's trying to cover herself with a barely-there cover up ;)] Let's just say I've been reading one too many pieces of suggestive fanfic lately (you know who you are...).

It's okay to guffaw... ;D I mean, B&J wearing hardly anything? Who woulda thunk it? Barn with washboard abs...chuckle.
And the picture evokes so many questions. What is Barn's hand doing back there; giving Julia's tush a squeeze, perhaps? Is she running away from the situation or leading him somewhere? What were they doing anyway, etc...?? ;)
Hey...stop staring at their snugly-fit swimwear!
No wait - I'll join you... ;D

Looks like Barnabas brings his cane where ever he goes :o
-
Its no wonder he is so blood thirsty, he is drinking for 2! (ok ok i will stop). ;D

LMAO, Tripwire! No, no...DO continue... ;D
Gee - thanks guys. I expected everyone to just shake their heads at that one. ::) I put my heart into it but...well, saying that I'm super self-critical is putting it lightly. :-X

Well, the draftsmanship alone is superb. You deserve an A just for that.
FWIW, there is a photo of Jonathan Frid wearing a tight pair of bathing trunks, with Louis Edmonds on the beach. It's in Craig Hamrick's biography of Louis, BIG LOU. Looks as if it dates to around 1968-69. Those trunks show that a coffin in the basement wasn't the only substantial secret dear Barnabas kept tucked away at the Old House.

Wonderful drawing Heather! Exceptional detail. Julia looks like a pretty happy beach bunny and I don't think it's because Barn is putting Hawaiian Tropic on her back. Of course, with her sad track record with him that might just be enough to light her fire. ;D

I'm thinking of the famous beach scene in From Here to Eternity, Heather!

I think I may have to look into some of that fan fic ;)
Fab portrait. You are very talented and I love the way you draw the textures.
BTW, I've seen the aforementioned snapshot of the bathing beauties Jonathan (oh, he looked *hot*) & Lou (lookin' good too) and you did a v. good job of capturing Barn's physique. Maybe you took a bit of artistic license with the abs (nothing wrong in that, rowwrrr), but overall that's pretty much how he looked in the snap.

I could send ya a few web addresses if you're interested. ;) A there's a couple yahoo groups and of course... the tremendously fantastic JuliaHoffman site www.juliahoffman.com (http://www.juliahoffman.com). Love that fanfic! ;D

Really?? Wow...I've seen that pic too but I've never studied it that closely. Thanks! :)

Like Gerald, I too am drawn toward "From Here to Eternity", and I'm a jealous as can be for you. First of all B&J and then, to make matters worst, "Jenning the Lusty Vampire. I almost wet my pants! A+++++
