Description
The scene: It has stopped snowing, at least for now; Lucy has found her way through the wardrobe and discovered the lamp-post in the forest of Narnia. After both being initially startled, Lucy has helped Mr. Tumnus pick up his parcels. He, in turn, has bowed to Lucy and introduced himself and she, innately kind and ever so polite has responded, "I am very pleased to meet you Mr. Tumnus". Far away, in the distant mountains, we see a glimpse of the white witch's castle, she who has decreed it to be "ever winter but never Christmas" in Narnia.
This scene is based on the wonderful and magical book, The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe by C. S. Lewis but everything in this acrylic on canvas is painted entirely from my own imagination.
