Talk about blood art here!

What's blood art? Sounds scary!

I think this qualifies, though the artist didn't put it in the 'blood' catagory

So blood art is when blood is one of the main "things" in that piece?

I'm guessing, either way there's some really good pictures of it

No. Blood art is when artists use blood as their medium. I myself paint with blood on occasion. That's my own blood. Some people use cow blood.
It's a fun medium to work with, almost like red ink, as it's much thinner than paint, and it you can change the tone of the color by adding more layers.
It dries quickly, and fades to brown after a while, but other than that blood is a fun medium to use.

So you actually use blood?
I'm not sure if I find that really creepy, or really cool.
Do you have an example handy?

Yes, real blood.

It's actually becoming more and more common on DeviantART...
