Vampiress and Raven

Where is this vampire girl going on a chilly winter night with her raven familiar on her shoulder?

I got the idea for this painting from a myspace illustration. I think it came out pretty well. I especially like how the vamp girl's hair and the ravens wings come out of the winter scene circle. I also like the blue highlights in her hair. Chilly and undead!

You can't tell from this photo but I put just a little strategically placed glitter on this picture. The raven has black and iridescent green glitter on some of his feathers, and the vampiress has just the faintest shimmer of iridescent glitter on the irises of her eyes so when you look at her from certain angles it looks as if her eyes are following you. The eye glitter was experimental, I wasn't at all sure what kind of effect it would have on the painting, but all in all I think it's a pretty cool addition to her sexy and spooky look.
