Description I was pulling out dusty books from an old bookshelf and found "Ozma of Oz" by L. Frank Baum with this beautiful illustration on the first page. I simply had to draw it.

Looks like you took Neil's drawing and vectorized it. Very cute.Β

This is a beautiful rendering of Ozma and so very like the ones in the books. You really capture that unique turn of the century style while still making it a bit less sketchy with the colors and shapes.

Very well done. This is very close to how I pictured Ozma in my head as a child. Ozma was and always will be one of my favorite fictional characters.

Ozma is my favorite Oz character. When I was little I was Ozma for Halloween one year. My sister was Dorothy, and everyone knew who she was and nobody knew who I was.

thanks for posting! As you might guess from my screen name, I'm a bit of an Oz book fan.

It appears so! I'm even more flattered that you like my drawing. I'm really glad that it shows something that you as a lover of the books want to see in the character!

I'm just jealous that I can't do something like that myself. I'm a pretty good writer, but as an artist I'm sadly lacking. But that's okay -- we've got people like you for that!

Oooo, this is so pretty! She's beautiful!

...I've really got to read those books. If only I could find the time *sigh*

Thanks!

Mmm... time is so hard to come by isn't it? I read them a very long time ago and I don't remember almost anything that happened, so I should probably get around to that sometime...

RealityBreakGirl In reply to Irise [2008-10-12 15:49:59 +0000 UTC]

Aw, no problem!

I don't even know the meaning of 'freetime' anymore. I'm lucky I found time to get on here (and I had over fifty messages and 300 deviations built up!). I'm afraid that free read will be a while in coming for me...

Although on the bright side, when I do get the time to read them, I work in a library so I should be able to find the books!

I loved the style it was drawn in in the book, so I wanted it to look a bit like that.
