Wilt thou be mine?

It will be the wedding of the century! Sauron proposes to his ladylove Jadis of Charn, also known as the White Witch, to unite the lands of Narnia and Middle-Earth. I can’t think of a more perfect match. Can you?

White Witch Diversity, Part 4

Not done with the White Witches yet. There’s plenty more to display. For example, here’s a young fan’s cosplay. White Witchiness truly encompasses all ethnicities. A kind of Valkyrie, or Elf Queen maybe, that could be a spectacular White Witch for the stage. An unusual perspective of the White Witch meeting Edmund — she’s charging …

White Witch Diversity, Part 3

Isn’t this the most sneery, evil, White Witch ever? She’s clapping her hands after some showy  but failed assault on her castle, saying “Well done, children, that was a good effort if a little lame I must say. Now I will turn all of you into stone.” This pic was done for International Womens Day, …

White Witch Diversity, Part 2

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 …
