The Emerald Stare: My Big Eye Witch Painting is Completed and Framed!

 

EDIT: SOLD, Thanks so much!

"What a world, what a world, what a world..."

The timing is perfect! As Wicked: For Good releases in theaters today, I'm thrilled to reveal the finished painting of my big-eye version of the wicked witch of the West, Elphaba!

Titled "The Emerald Stare," this piece was sparked by Mab Graves's #Drawlloween #witch prompt. She captures Elphaba's intense gaze, complete with her characteristic pointed hat and signature green hue.

Miniature Magic: This original traditional oil painting on paper is petite! The art measures only approximately 2.75" x 3.5" (the full framed size is approximately 4" x 6"). It's a perfect pocket-sized piece of Oz!

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

The Emerald Stare: My Big Eye Witch WIP Painting!

 

That #witch prompt for Mab Graves's #Drawlloween challenge inspired me so much I had to bring her to life in paint!

Here is the underpainting for "The Emerald Stare"—my big-eye version of the wicked witch of the West, Elphaba, inspired by the movie Wicked! The base is laid, and the details are starting to emerge.

I am working hard to finish and frame her in time to share the completed piece on Friday, November 21st, the same day Wicked: For Good hits theaters!

Stay tuned for the reveal!

Feliz Día de Muertos & La Sonrisa: My Big Eye Day of the Dead Painting!

 

Today, on Día de Muertos, I'm sharing one of my favorite pieces from the archive!

Titled "La Sonrisa" (The Smile), this painted face, purple hair streaked beauty with big brown eyes welcomes lost loved ones with an open heart. Her smile embodies the spirit of the day.

This is an 8"x10" original acrylic painting on panel, framed and ready to hang. I added some subtle texture to the background to enhance the piece.

Availability Note: The original framed painting is available for purchase! Since this beauty is currently in storage, please note it may take a little time to retrieve. While it comes framed, it's a standard size, so you're welcome to choose your own frame to match your decor!

Please contact me directly if you're interested in details about this painting.
