I saw this while doing some research online. I was stunned for a few seconds, thinking that someone had managed to telepathically tap some of the more dangerous ghettos of my erotic imagination. I followed the above image and was quickly led to this wonderful little site:

I look at her work and think of the blood rituals of the Bacchae or the scythes of Skopti glittering with moonlight and blood. I see the shadows of witch orgies flicker around campfires lit in secret forests and in deep caves, where even the sternest of Mountain Gods won't go. I hear the cry of Pans mistress echo out of the primal dark, I see the armies of the Savage Pirate Queen gather along the shores of Heliopolis and I see the vampire women of Atlanta lurking along the dancefloors of fetish clubs.
Ahhhhh.... Friday!
