Narnian Group Costuming

Along the lines of the lamppost post (punny!) below: it’s not so hard to create a Narnian costume, even a group one. This trio used an expert hand in theatrical makeup along with some simple costumes and props: fur coat, Halloween  wig, white garments, and a nicely painted cardboard box, with hangers. It gets the …

More White Witches on Parade

Design for a book cover with the kids and the witch, who, with her golden halo, looks like an evil saint. I like how the artist caught aspects of the kids’ personalities here and gave them the correct hair colors that were in the book. An angry witch who appears to screaming  “Hand over that …

White Witches on Parade

Here’s a number of interesting White Witches that I found over the course of a year. The above one is of Jadis in her… chariot! She kept it stored in her garage in case the snow melted. In the Walden movie it was pulled by polar bears. Another unusual one is this fiber arts White …

Farewell to the 2024 Summer of Narnia

It ended sooner than I wanted. However there is lots of leftover material for next year’s three-month extravaganza! I’ll close with this delicious AI-generated version of The White Witch’s bento box. Made of polished and ornamented silver, it contains plenty of raw fish (tuna and salmon filets), hardboiled eggs, roe, oysters, pickled garlic, and nuts …

The White Witch Returns, Drag Queen Edition

The creative world of drag culture offers some unique takes on wintry femme fatales. Here’s some I found. First, drag queen artist Raja Gemini, alluring inside or outside of drag. Pangina Heals in an Asian-based costume. Paul Quin as a Goth White Witch. I like the fur shoulder pads and mirrored crown. Sasha Velour rocking …
