🕯On All Hallows’ Eve when the moon is round, a virgin will summon us from under the ground… 🕯

Hello Salem! This year for Halloween I wanted to get a Hocus Pocus painting done to celebrate the sequel premiering and the 29th anniversary of the original film. The basis for this piece was a series of sketches I did in 2018 which you can view in a saved story on my page! The sisters mostly stayed the same but I updated a few details since four years is a long time and my design style changed has slightly. In 2018 I was imagining what the sisters would wear if they had new outfits made in purgatory, so this is a continuation of that idea.

🕷 Sarah’s design is pretty straightforward. I was inspired by Mary E Vogt’s original concept which featured layers of silk scraps and beads to create something really ethereal. Basically it’s her costume from the first film but totally ripped to shreds, a little more revealing and sexy.

📖 Winnie’s dress is influenced by her Queen Elizabeth I hairstyle. I gave her an Elizabethan silhouette complete with collar, but of course kept her long “wizard sleeves.” My favorite detail of Mary Vogt’s original design is Winnie’s red petticoat, so I made her base skirt entirely red. The red color actually ties all three sisters together, since each features red somewhere in their design.

🧪 Mary’s design was the biggest departure from my original 2018 sketch. In the years since, she has become my favorite sister so I wanted to give her a dress that was really gorgeous. As @theaustinjayshow has pointed out, no design series from me would be complete without a tiered skirt, with either pointed or rounded petals, so that’s how Mary manifested this time. Each of the scarves reflects the patterned fabric of her original costume.

Costume designs I did of Halle Bailey as Ariel back in 2020. I never posted them here but I felt like they needed to be on this blog too. They are posted in sequential order of when they’d appear in the story;

she starts out a mermaid, the next design is the “shipwreck dress” made by scuttle, followed by her dinner dress and nightgown. The next costume is the rumored “pants look” she wears for horseback riding in the live action film, followed by her “Kiss The Girl” dress. Next up is a ballgown for another new scene in the live action film, followed by the seafoam dress King Triton creates for her, followed by her wedding dress. I hope you enjoy!

I haven’t posted on here in forever but Wicked The Musical is doing an art contest and seeing as they already reposted this piece on their social media, I figured I’d post it here! See more of my work on my Instagram @ hwilki

A poster I did for my illustration class based off of the posters you’d see in the 90′s and early 2000′nds in libraries encouraging kids to read. It took a while to make and I actually had to take some time off from looking at it. After taking a break, I was able to approach the piece with a fresh eye and rework my ideas with the piece, creating a poster that I could be proud of. I struggled with the designs for the two figures (Glinda and Galadriel) because I wanted them to be recognizable, but also be wholly original designs. My solution to this was to use certain motifs that could be associated with the characters as well as to use actresses who played the roles as my inspiration (Kristin Chenoweth for Glinda and Cate Blanchett for Galadriel). Once I had a way to ground the characters, I went sort of wild with my imagination- hopefully creating a captivating picture. The two ladies are immersed in the novels that they're reading and sitting very close to one another, showing that books can be a source of happiness and friendship.
