Spectre Bride

Original Art by Valerie Savarie

This piece was made form a tiny book of works by Washington Irving published in the 1920’s. Included stories where The Spectre Bridegroom and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. I decide to combine the two and added my own twist – a body-less head as a ghostly bride.
