I saw this in the current issue of Rue Morgue. Vincent Castiglia is in artist who takes his passion for his works to an extreme that some may not be able to stomach. This artist paints using his own blood. The concept alone is unusual enough. But when checking out his website you can see that the man has talent. His imagery is fascinating and he has the talent to execute it.

I wonder if his decision to use his own blood has created any limitations to how much art he produces. The Red Cross suggests that you can only donate a pint of blood like every 8 weeks. I didn't see anything indicating how much blood he needs for each piece he produces.

Check out his website for more images and look for the article in the new Rue Morgue (issue 82)
