In Case You Missed It: A Chinese Wizard of Oz

In Case You Missed It: A Chinese Wizard of Oz

For most people, it’s the 1939 movie that comes to mind when they hear the words The Wizard of Oz. But artist Billy Nunez has created a new version in the style of imaginative Chinese line-drawings. See them for yourself at Design Taxi’s feature from this summer, “If ‘The Wizard Of Oz’ Were Set In China…

The premise is simple enough: “Dorothy is a little Chinese girl, Lion is a tiger, Tin Man is a samurai, and Scarecrow is still a scarecrow but looks somewhat different.” But make no mistake: It’s the most enchanting set of drawings you’ll see today, guaranteed.
