WB Marketing Art. Portrait of Dorothy and Toto from THE WIZARD OF OZ. Pencil.

This was rendered in meticulous detail as an assist for renowned artist David Edward Byrd, who was illustrating a series of collectible WOZ plates. I can't find the other 3 I did for him. The photo reference for such an old property was very difficult to work with. It was a struggle, but turned out well.

Ironic, considering the twister, that Dorothy's last name is "Gale." LOL!

See? Cuz it's-- all about-- the-- wind-- and...
...never mind...


*UPDATE - I'm deeply honored that this piece was selected as a DAILY DEVIATION, and so many more people here seem to have suddenly found it.

As for the meticulous detail rendering, yeah, it was a bit of labor. But, although the gingham dress pattern was tedious, it was Toto that was the real bitch! LOL!!

> ahem! < ...sorry...

This is another awesome piece of artwork Jerome. And it's amazing how its a different style from your Young Justice image. You're talented on all levels :iconawwwplz:

Thank you so much, Monica. I appreciate your gracious comments.
Of course, the art style for YOUNG JUSTICE is one established by another artist, so that's not a true representation of my own. And this illustration merely references a photograph, so it's really an exercise in translating what I saw, and being as observant as possible.
