A traditional illustration of Kathy Bates as Annie Wilkes from the movie Misery. She is looking over her shoulder with disdain. She is framed by the pig doorstop that ends her life in the movie.
Day Twelve: Annie Wilkes. RIP Annie, you would have loved the Snyder Cut.

A traditional illustration of Lady Sylvia Marsh from Lair of the White Worm. A woman with scales for hair and two long snake fangs hisses fearsomely. She is framed by a historical drawing of a serpent.
Day Eleven: Lady Sylvia Marsh from Lair of the White Worm.
This movie rules so hard, and the Lady Marsh is an all-time great!

An illustration of Gozer from the first Ghostbusters movie. She is turning her head and screaming, framed by a triangle.
Day Nine: Gozer. We’re back with the first new piece in the series! Gozer is one of those instantly recognizable designs I learned a lot about while trying to draw.

A black and white illustration of Sissy Spaces as Carrie White from the 1976 movie Carrie. She is wild-eyed and covered in blood, her long dark hair ending in pouring liquid. She is framed by flames.
Day Seven: Carrie White. I was excited for this one because Sissy Spacek’s face during the finale is *unreal.*

A black and white illustration of Marki Bey from 1974’s Sugar Hill. A black woman stares menacingly at the viewer, wearing a jumpsuit with an open collar and deep cleavage. She has a tall Afro, and is framed in a skull.
Day Six; Sugar Hill. I’ve been meaning to draw her for a long time; I have another piece I haven’t posted yet, but it feels like it’s a slightly different style.

A black and white illustration of Natalya Barley as the witch Pannochka from the 1967 film VIY. She has long dark hair and a ring of daisies around her head, and is glaring tauntingly at her victim, her hands outstretched.
Day Five: Pannochka. 1967’s folk horror classic VIY is a pretty slow burn… until it dives fully off the rails at the end. At the heart of it all is Pannochka.

A black and white portrait illustration of Barbara Steel from Mario Bava’s 1960 film Black Sunday. She is framed by the outline of a tidied mask. Her dark hair is wild and curly, and on the left half of her face she is wild eyed and sporting puncture wounds, while the right half of her face is fresh-faced and innocent, representing Steele’s dual roles in the movie.
Day Four; Asa Vajda. Barbara Steele’s performance in Mario Bava’s Black Sunday is absolutely iconic for a reason! #MonsterMashJanuary25 #MMJLK #AsaVajda #BarbaraSteele #BlackSunday #BlackAndWhite #LadyKillers #Horror #MarioBava #BlackSunday1960 #HorrorMovies #Ink #TraditionalArt #Artsky
Pen drawing of a woman wearing a retro-futuristic alien sci-fi uniform drawn on a crystal Post-It note.

A black and white illustration of Simone Simon as Irena Dubrovna from 1942’s Cat People. She is framed by a panther outline. She is turning to the right, looking contemplative or possibly murderous.
Day Two; Irena Dubrovna. The Serbian werecat woman from 1942’s Cat People! I’m really fascinated by Val Lewton’s RKO run, and his arthouse response to Universal’s output. The A24 of its day, in a way. Here’s Simone Simon looking contemplative and possibly murderous! #MonsterMashJanuary25 #MMJLK
A black and white illustration of Gloria Holden as Marya Zaleska from Dracula’s Daughter. A woman gazing at the viewer through hooded eyes, her hair pulled back tightly, and a sparkly collar and small bat pin on her lapel. She is framed by a ring.
Day One; Countess Marya Zaleska.
Happy New Year and Happy Monster Mash January!Dracula’s Daughter is the first sequel to Universal’s famous 1931 Dracula film, starring Gloria Holden as a repentant vampire with some very queer overtones. Let the horror begin!!#MonsterMashJanuary25 #MMJLK
