Description Lucy Westenra
I'm reading Bram Stokers Dracula and I'm around the part where Lucy is fading and growing weaker and weaker for every day, I wonder what -bit- her

I think I like her hair the most

Excerpt: Lucy Westenra's Diary- "There was a sort of scratching or flapping at the window, but I did not mind it, and as I remember no more, I suppose I must have fallen asleep. More bad dreams. I wish I could remember them. This morning I am horribly weak. My face is ghastly pale, and my throat pains me. It must be something wrong with my lungs, for I don't seem to get air enough..."

The dear Lucy and her winged friend is of course Bram Stokers.

It's always nice to see how others picture famous characters. Lucy does get a tough time of it, doesn't she poor thing. I love the dust effect underneith her. It makes it look even more like she's fading away to nothing but grey memory.
By the way, the black markings on her arm, what are they? (I've never read the book in full, only the over view. Shame on me.)

Thank you

It's nothing actually, I mean, nothing thats in the book- just my creativity I think at the time I was going for a tainted blood-in-her-veins kind of feel, since lucy is slowly turning into a vampire, and this book ( and the victorians I suppose) were so fixated on blood, and blood letting, i thouhgt I might give that a little uh... tip of the hat XD

Most books expect you to use your imagination so artistic licence is a given. Besides, it's a good idea. I like the symbolisum of the darkness spreading through her body.

I didn't think the Victorians were still into blood letting but it has been very popular for many years.
