Description

“Surely there is the handful of nursery marchen that start, ‘Once in the middle of a forest lived an old witch’ or ‘The devil was out walking one day and met a child,” said Oatsie, who was showing that she had some education as well as grit. “To the grim poor there need be no pour quoi tale about where evil arises; it just arises; it always is. One never learns how the witch became wicked, or whether that was the right choice for her-is it ever the right choice? Does the devil ever struggle to be good again, or if so is he not a devil? It is at the very least a question of definitions.”
Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire

Vision: This is a beautiful piece. My favorite, by far, out of your work. I love the idea! Continue with your work and let it be as fine as this!

Originality: This is pretty original, especially the imagining of Elphaba's face and the clocks behind her representing how the inside of her works and the colors help to show what she IS feeling on the inside.

Technique: I love the crosshatching in this. It makes it look so smooth yet so vulnerable...I really can't describe this any other way but beautiful.

Impact: You made an impact on me! I'm in love and would trade anything just to have the original in my hand.

Overall: AMAZING!!
