That picture was painted by Michelle Chuang in 2006. She's a professional illustrator. It's called "Legend of the Vampire III."

That said, it has been used and abused all over roleplaying websites on the internet for years, so he probably just bummed it off google.

As for the femininity, I'm going to stereotype a little and say that probably has something to do with the artist being Asian. Japanese pop culture, after all, puts a lot of emphasis on the androgynous, boyish look. But he doesn't have breasts, so he's definitely male.
