Quite amazing tale and it would match many lines from the song, but I'm suffering from same problem as Grim here. I can't find any articles on a painter called Andre Marcellin (with or without accents on characters) or painters whose models keep dying - and you can be sure such a case would be recorded for posterity on many sites on unusual phenomenon.
Additionally there's the problem the lyrics contain both "Should you draw me?" and "Should I draw me?"
That said, I found many of the tracks on Winterheart's Guild quite mysterious, perhaps more so than any other Sonata Arctica album, and this one of the tracks whose meaning simply didn't open to me. I did note that "Gravenimage", "(Playwright's) Misery" and "Draw Me" are seemingly about three fine arts - musical, written and visual, in that order. There is also a heavy relationship-influence going on here, so I prefer to see the three as a grand artistic loveletter. There's probably more going on than that, though.
