The iconic Karen Cooper zombie portrayed by the ever-beautiful Kyra Schon. Rendered in #2 and 4H pencil.
This is an iconic image that has certainly been reproduced by many artists already. I argued with myself whether I wanted to do this after it had already been done, but in the end, one fact won out: I LOVE NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, and this image, the little girl zombie, was one of the main things that I remember most about seeing this film for the first time when I was 8. Also, to have some knowledge of what a nice person Kyra Schon is in real life makes this more of an homage to both a movie and a wonderful person.
I must admit I haven't seen the movie myself, for all I have a great interest in horror it's mostly of the macabre gothic and Victorian sort. Nothing too scary! Zombies have always creeped me out more than I like. Reading Lovecraft and watching Shawn of the Dead is about my limit!
Might have to be brave and check it out though
For what it's worth, it's the FIRST zombie film that features the zombies we all know and love
