The Three Muses Art Challenge - Turquose and Red

Our theme challenge this week at The Three Muses is Turquoise and Red.  I know being a working photographer isn't as romantic as this scene, but I had fun layering my pieces to get this romantic result. 

And I agree with Ansel Adams, "There are always two people in every picture:  the photographer and the viewer."   I hope you enjoy it!

Until next time...

Sunday Postcard Art Challenge - Secret Garden

The challenge theme this week at Sunday Postcard Art is Secret Garden.  I loved putting this one together.  Doesn't everyone want a secret garden?  Trees, bushes, garden furniture, a cool stucco building with ivy draping down the walls, a beautiful water feature with fish, ducks and frogs, lots of birds, including a beautiful peacock.  Muted sunshine so the computer screen isn't hard to read.
  
Oh yeah, I would really enjoy this little garden!  😉

See you next time...

The Three Muses Challenge - Window

Our challenge this week at The Three Muses is "WINDOW  Put a window in your world next week ... any kind of window ... anywhere." 

I've been sick with the flu for weeks now, and I missed a bunch of challenges that sounded like FUN!  I've had zero motivation to start anything new, but now things are starting to look up and this is my first piece this year. I think I wanted something calm and easy  - simple tent camping - and I added my "window" to the sidewall of the tent.  

This one was fun to do - my favorite part is the little baby monkey hanging on the rope tied to the tree.  Why is a baby monkey camping in the backyard?  Who knows?  This one doesn't necessarily make sense, I just used the elements I liked and had fun putting them together.   

There are some other challenges in the pipeline that look like fun topics, so hopefully I'll be motivated to do more soon.  :)

See you next time...

The Three Muses Challenge - Travel

The theme this week at The Three Muses is "Choose a word for January to inspire you."

My birthday is in January, so I put myself into this piece.  My word for January is TRAVEL.

Waiting for the train with all my luggage.  Do you think I have enough?  It's going to be a long trip!   I had so much fun with this one - tons of graphics and overlays.  😊

See you next time...
