We are so excited to welcome you to our very first Three Muses challenge and we hope you like our first choice of theme.Is it because Mona Lisa has one of the most famous faces in the world, or is her enigmatic smile the reason she so often features in altered art?
Whatever the reason Mona Lisa, or her enigmatic smile, is our very first challenge theme.
The size and medium are your choice, it's your interpretation of the theme we are looking forward to seeing.
Don't forget to post a link to your blogs so we can all see your artistic creations.
So without further ado your inspiration this week is Mona Lisa by Taluula. Have Fun.

Fantastic start to the new challenge, Ann. I love Ms Mona Lisa Zetti!! As you would say, Diddley Scrumptious (or words to that effect). It is going to be so exciting to see Mona According to Blogsters!!
Mermaid Mona is happily swimming along on my blog!
Please click on my name & thanks for looking!

Congratulations on this blog launch and best wishes for MUCH success! I KNOW that great things will be happening here and can't wait to see things develop. Mona sure is a "looker", Taluula! Huge Hugs! Terri xoxo
Hello muses! Thank you for inviting me to be part of your challenge. I have to say first off that as much as I love seeing your artistic pieces that you come up with (you're SO talented!), I've never attempted anything myself. I'm not sure I can be as creative as you all are. I'm not making any promises, but I might give it a shot. We'll see how it goes. ~Lori
Thank you for me inviting me, Three Muses! And congrats on the launch of this challenge blog.
Can't wait to get started :D

Lori!! I hope you join us!! Love, Jamie
OK ladies...I actually did one! It turned out OK - certainly not professional. But I had fun with it, and it might at least make you laugh if nothing else! ~Lori
oops should I have waited for an invitation ??
I just bumped into the 3 muses somewhere .

I love your Monazetti, Ann. And I love that our blog friends are already starting to post their art here! My Mona has been waiting in the wings until Wednesday, but it appears none of us can wait that long. I'll be bringing her out shortly. Everyone should know that you did virtually all the set-up for this blog page, while Marie and I were enthusiastic participants! Good job, my friend.
Oh, great!!!
Ann, love your Mona!!! :O)
I'll be here with mine soon!
Bye, my dear Three Muses!!!

Well, I could not resist this challenge! I added a photo from a 1972 Vogue magazine(yes, I used to take it and this is mine!). I saved it because it has a beautiful article and pictures of audrey hepburn, whom I adored!)

Hello ladies I've wished you all good luck elsewhere - at least I think I have, but I'm sending love and good luck wishes here too because I don't know if I'll have time to join in this week x
Thanks for the good wishes! If you don't find time this week, Marie has chosen "doors" as the theme for next week's challenge. Your thoughtful comment is appreciated!
I love these challenges blogs, they're so inspiring! Thank you for this challenge, it is very interesting.
I love your creation, Taluula. It's fanny and artistic at the same time!

Congratulations on this great challenge blog! I created a Mona tag, but for the life of me cannot paste any kind of link here. Maybe next week.

Well...after I posted that comment, my 'paste' feature returned. My tag is a Warhol-like creation.

Leonardo da Vinci, in a Renaissance version of Mad Magazine, may have painted his famous Mona Lisa in a number of ways, including nude. Now, a painting has surfaced that looks much like the original, sparking debate over just how far the master took his iconic painting.
Congrats on the new challenge blog, gals. I posted mine at Digital Art Quirks, but for some reason, I'm not able to paste the link.
Here is my ver ugly Mona Lisa !
I hope it will be better next time !
