Description I've been interested in the Wizard of Oz since I was about three years old, so I finally went and got Gregory Maguire's book Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West. This is the result

OpenCanvas
AdobePS7.0
CorelDraw10 [of my own free will, too!]

Edit: I have now seen the show, too, haha <3 to all you lovely people who keep recommending it to me XD

Okay, what's going to be the next tremendously popular sympathetic villain origin story?

By the way, do you think this song is at all appropriate for Wicked? [link]

[link] Don't know if this counts as art theft but it looks too much like this to be a coincidence and I saw NO credit for inspiration or such in the artist comments, so I thought I'd bring it to your attention.

This is fabulous! I may point out there's actually 13 numbers on the clock (if you've seen the musical) but I'unno about the book, I've yet to be given permission to read it. Fabulous job though!

vimfuego In reply to venuslove [2009-09-02 16:09:33 +0000 UTC]

aha thanks, it is finished the black and white part is intentionally left uncoloured, although I think I was entertaining some notion of tweaking bits of it back in the day XD it's been four years so probably not!

:bursts into song:
Some people think
That others come into our lives
For a reason
To teach us something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And if help them in return
Well I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I am who I am today
Because I met you

OMG I'm reading MaGuire's book right now, which it kicks butt! I can't wait until I get a chance to read the rest of the series. Anyway, I love this piece and it is awesome. I'm also creating Wicked fan stuff of my own; I'm creating a comic strip all about Boq and Fiyero, so check it out! Anyway, nice work!
