White Witch

9×12 pastel on Sennelier La Carte paper

FEATURED IN “MYTHS. LEGENDS, AND FAIRYTALES”, “INSPIRED ART”, “THE DIVINE FEMININE”, AND “DREAM AND FANTASY ART” GROUPS.

This is my entry into the Jessica Walker challenge in Bubbler Portraits. I used Jessica’s self portrait Ice Queen as a reference.
When I saw Jessica’s portrait I thought of the White Witch in Narnia. I wanted to do this as a big acrylic painting, but got anxious to do it….and so it’s pastel. Maybe I will paint it someday.

Laminated Print

Medium sized framed print

    Oh how beautiful Tammy. Reminds me of the Lion the witch and the wardrobe by C.S. Lewis. Magical, enchanting and divinely beautiful my friend. Wow.

  • MoonSpiral replied

    Yep, that is what I was going for, glad you caught the reference. Thanks Anthea!!!

    This is an exceptional pastel. I don’t think that acrylics could have captured the same light and feeling. Beautiful!

  • MoonSpiral replied

    Thanks Terry, yeah I kind of thought that too…..but I really wanted it big….I like to work big, and I only had little pastel paper.

    Nice to see the real you on the Avatar.

  • MoonSpiral replied

    Haha…yeah there’s a little more of me in that avatar. This one is slightly different, I was trying to do my best making it look like Jessica Walker. I am not the best with exact portraits, but this was fun!

  • Lynette K.

    Damn Tammy! This is absolutely delicious! When I read the title before clicking the link I knew CS Lewis had to be something. Stunning colours. Your pastel work is fab…makes me want to try my hand at it. Beyond amazing. I cannot say enough on this to give it justice..

  • MoonSpiral replied

    I had this image in my mind when I saw Jessica’s pic, but I really wanted to do it really big in a painting. I got so damned impatient, so here it is. You are way too kind, but hey….I will take it :)

  • Tahnja

    Tahnja

    I reckon it’s going to be tough to beat you in this competition hehehehe…will have to see if I can come up with something to add, not sure if I will get time but I have an image of Jessica’s planned to tackle when time permits….she sure is brilliant!

  • MoonSpiral replied

    I know, it is hard to not be inspired by her portfolio. I think it is going to be a hard competition to pick a winner. Everyone’s work so far is amazing….and I am sure if you find time, yours will be stunning too!!!
