The Emerald Stare: My Big Eye Witch for Drawlloween!

 


"What a world, what a world!" Kicking off today's Mab Graves's #Drawlloween prompt: #witch!


I chose to draw a big-eye version of the so-called wicked witch of the West, inspired by Elphaba from Wicked. Titled "The Emerald Stare," she's complete with her characteristic hat and signature green hue.


This is an 8"x10" traditional drawing—a toned colored pencil study on 9"x12" tan paper. Drawing her was an absolute delight, and I hope to translate this piece into a painting someday!


The original drawing is available for purchase! Please contact me directly for details if you're interested.


Thanks @MabGraves for hosting!
