*Photo Update* Which witch is which?

Miss Ronnie wrote:Thanks Hoobie (my new nickname for you!) I pictured my yellow brick road to OZ almost exactly as you painted it!.... I think I'll line the road with the orange poppies. I don't think I'm going to have the luxury of time on my side to get too extravagant with my work. I know I have to edit, edit edit myself.... my BIGGEST problem!!!

I tried to make poppies, but couldn't make them look right, I would love to see your designs! I had trouble doing ruby slippers too. I am re-doing Dorothy and the Tin man, I'll put new pics on as I get them done.

Someone asked about a Flying Monkey. My friend requested that I paint her daughter for a costume contest. She made the costume and I came up with the design from a photo from the MGM Movie. I had only been painting about 6 months when I did this design, so I'm sure I could make it better now and I'm sure many of you could blow it out of the water! She did win the contest though! LOL!



This is the web image I used for inspiration:

Thanks for all your ideas everyone! I am going to have to really work hard to put a board together before Friday!

Here's some of the designs I did today for my menu board this weekend... Thanks so much to everyone for all your help! I will have more designs and photos tomorrow.

That is beautiful Rhonda!!! I love the rainbow, you just got all in one pic!!

Love them all but especially the apple throwing tree. You got that angry/grumpy attitude down on him!

I am loving that cute little tin man's hat!

My favorite is the twister! Very cool!

How wonderful these OZ designs are! I love the Wizard of OZ sooooo much. If you have any teens or adults come by, you could give them a wicked witch fancy eye type thing in shimmer green and black. Then paint the lips red with red glitter(ruby slippers) Here is one I did. You could simplify it down to hurry. I know it isn't traditional Oz style but kinda funky.

Jody - that rocks!!! The theme this year is "The Witches of Oz" and that is so in line with it!... It really reminds me of "Wicked" - the author of "Wicked" is this year's Grand Marshall... they used to always have actors from the movie be Grand Marshall, but sadly, I think there is only one or two still alive.

When I did this look, the theme at the school was Broadway Shows and Wicked definitely came to mind. It is my Elphaba inspired design. I am so excited that you get to paint for this super cool event! Is it wrong that I feel a little jealous too??? LOL

Love all your designs, especially the twister around the eye...cute.

Some quickies I fit in today... Glinda the Good (did it from memory from the movie 'cause I was outside with the kids - no laptop), The Lollipop Guild, a quicker rainbow, a quicker muzzle-only Cowardly Lion, the Ruby Slippers, and "the horse of a different color you've heard tell about"...(which I'll offer in several different colors). Tomorrow I have to find time to do a hot air balloon and some kind of a Toto, too! Gotta finish my menu board by tomorrow night.... sometime between work, a doctor's apt., and my son's baseball game - then pack the car back up. Damn, I SHOULD be skinny from all this!

These are just too stinkin cute! The witch's feet crack me up and that lion muzzle is adorable! They are all great ones.

Love the lion muzzle!
