NOBODY is doing goth love like Mina "babe, read my funeral rites" and Jonathan "if Mina must become a vamprie, I'll face God and walk backwards into Mina's loving, undead embrace" Harker. Nobody.

Actually, Bram Stoker’s Dracula

Frustrated that a good Dracula adaptation doesn’t exist I just made my own movie poster for the movie that should exist but somehow doesn’t!!!

The beloveds.

Why would you do a bunch of storytelling gymnastics with the “oh Mina was Dracs wife in a past life” so you can invent a love story between them when Jonathan Harker is right there in the source material trekking through wolf-infested forests, half insane, just to get back to Mina. Jonathan is right there, trusting Mina with knowledge he doesn’t even remember himself. He’s right there, full of fury and rage, ready to cut Dracula in half and drag him to hell himself. All for Mina. He’s ready to become a vampire for Mina. Like it’s just insane to me we somehow as a culture decided that some musty creepy old dude was more attractive than a sweet charming guy with unhinged feral energy lurking just below the surface. Also he’s got white hair, a machete, trauma, and he might not be 100% Normal anymore. And you want me to root for the COUNT? The stalker guy with bad breath who doesn’t possess a single ounce of actual romanticism?

Like sorry, but there is nothing in Coppola’s Dracula that will ever be more romantic than Jonathan Harker holding Mina close despite her thinking she’s dangerous and tainted. Jonathan holding her, murder in his eyes while simultaneously having nothing but infinite tenderness in his hands as he ruffles her hair.

Something Is Very Wrong With The Harkers...

Designs for two Lenticular Paintings I desperately want to print and stick in gothic Victorian frames.

Yarrow Bellringer for today's morning warm up, i havent drawn it since the concept i shared a month ago, and you lot were the ones bringing them back!!! 😄🌼

As i make my way through my roster, i aim to finally finalise Yarrow's design, along with the rest of the cast. Hopefully incorporating more of the flower, given as weve now used it for a signature phrase :~)

Jonathan: Good-bye, all! Mina!

Mina:  I wonder where Jonathan is and if he is thinking of me! I wish he were here.

A preview of the Harkers circa 1902

[ibrithir-was-here]

love your ideas! lmao I have a... messily-drafted WIP sequel that is set in the 1920s but it involves Lucy Harker (born like six years after Quincey) involved in detective shenanigans because I headcanon any of their kids being super inquisitive like Mina (who was the Sherlock Holmes in Dracula), but with the supernatural involved. May or may not have been a nurse during the war. Hides her power level. The idea of mysteries-solving Quincey is fascinating as well eyes.emoji

Oooh Love that!! Good luck on it!

If you’re taking requests… pls 🥺 can we have some more Jonmina 🥺?

My best friend and I are absolutely obsessed with Jonmina and we adore your art, could you do something with Jonathan and Mina in proper wedding attire or honeymoon-esque vibes, hugging each other, making up for the lack of real celebration they got for their union?

Okay, so, I had a digital painting class where the lecturer let us draw whatever we want as long as we used the methods we’d been taught, and I took that opportunity to make JonMina content… I offer you the most rendered thing I have ever posted

The couple ever

[disco-tea]

Imagine reading the text and honestly somehow getting that Jonathan sees Mina as tainted. Like imagine seriously thinking that…when he literally refused to hear it when SHE said she was tainted and she shouldn’t touch him and he said “nope” and held her anyway. Or when he said he’d become a vampire too for her. Or when he refers to her as his “poor wronged darling” because he doesn’t BLAME her for what happened and still refers to her as “perfection” or when he literally ‘took her in his arms and kissed her.’ Like thats such an absolutely inaccurate and rancid interpretation.

Happy "Mina Harker reads Dracula" day!
