I love Johnny Depp. I love Tim Burton. I love Helena Bonham Carter. That's why when I received an email from deviantART about a Dark Shadows art contest, it was like it was made for me.
The Barnabas Portrait Project solicits fan art depicting Johnny Depp as Barnabas Collins. And get this – it will be judged by Tim Burton.
Here is my first entry. Since Barnabas is a vampire, I thought he would be a err… natural subject for a Day of the Dead portrait.
Original painting by me. Barnabas Collins character is property of Warner Bros.

Maybe I will get crazy and do another straight-up portrait to enter this weekend. I mean, can you imagine Tim Burton looking at your work?
I die.
