Frau Sakra’s Pit of Ink

Ink drawings and oil paintings with romance and a twist of poison. NO NFTs.
Happy birthday to Vincent Price!! My painting “The View from Dragonwyck” is a tribute to several of his movies at once. I had the amazingly good fortune to meet him when I was 11 years old, backstage after his performance as Oscar Wilde in “Diversions and Delights.”
