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 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 …
Let’s look at some more White Witch depictions — and Snow Queens, Ice Princesses, Winter Maidens, and the like — that have been modeled by celebrities. Once I started looking, there were far more than I realized. And not all of them were female… but that’s gonna warrant it’s own separate post! First, a classic. …
“More Turkish Delight, please. THEN I’ll tell you about my siblings, beginning with the oldest one.”
My Summers of Narnia seem to be settling around a certain theme. Last year it was The Silver Chair; this year, it’s the book that started it all, The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. And with that theme, some more White Witches I found, not explicitly marked as The White Witch of course, but …

Another fashion shoot witch in the Tilda Swinton mold. This model was from a web site referencing “Candy Goth” style. But she’s got the …
A proposed design for a Spanish language edition of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe using a collage technique. I like it.
One of the most iconic scenes in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, and the movies made of it, is of a naive, disgruntled Edmond meeting the White Witch in the woods with her sleigh. Most depictions show him startled, as here. The witch turns toward him casually, tall, proud, and imperious, about to …
It’s time for some more depictions of Narnia’s White Witch, like this spooky one of a dark-complected, Drow-like (the black-skinned, white-haired chaotic evil elves of AD&D fame) Jadis riding sidesaddle on a white wolf. An anime White Witch with a night sky of storms and snowflakes in her hair. The pale blue and black combination …
I thought I was done with the White Witch pics for the summer, but then I came across this gorgeous AI one. But note there was no white horse in the story!
