This is a Prisma Color Pencil sketch of my ex-lover Enrique, done from memory. I also used a medium gray Tombo Brush Pen for laying in the shadow areas.
VAMPIRE PENIS 12
We come to the end of the sequence of drawings I call “Vampire
Penis”. Two nights ago I scrounged around in my studio looking for the
other individual panel drawings I did during this period intended for use in a
hypothetic non-narrative graphic short story. I was unable to find them;
neither could I find the stock pile of
scrap Strathmore 2 ply I had compiled intending to use toward said
projected narrative. Will the story of
the creepy dude with the lethal phallic-like appendage continue? Stay tuned.
VAMPIRE PENIS 11
(Continued from day 10) Looking at the drawings 3 or 4 years later I
actually like them quite a bit. They remind me of Jordi Bernet if I do say so
myself. As for drawing small, who says I have to continue? I can draw any size
I want, including in the computer (gasp).
VAMPIRE PENIS 10
One of the reasons I ran out of steam on this project is that I got
tired of working so small; the original’s image area is 4.5” square. I
regretted choosing such a limitation, wasn’t enjoying the process or the
result. (to be continued)

There’s something vaguely botanical about the design of the penis, which doesn’t make it any less creepy.
VAMPIRE PENIS 4
I did these drawings while tabling at APE Con a few years back. I had
spent the prior evening in a San Francisco gay bar that was screen porn on the
overhead monitors. One of the movies had a blow-job sequence that took the
giver so long to unzip the receiver’s fly that it reminded me of a horror
movie. “What’s going to happen?” I mused; “Is an alien monster
penis going to leap out of his open pants?”
VAMPIRE PENIS 3
I got the idea from Art Spiegelman from one of his early 70’s short stories in Arcade Magazine to draw a series random single panels and later assemble them into a non-linear narrative. I started drawing them while tabling at APEcon, in San Francisco, in October of 2009, right after Obama got elected as I recall.
