The Three Muses Challenge - Doors

This week’s theme is “Doors”. My sample picture began with an interesting door and a black and white pen sketch of a Victorian lady in distress. I think I got carried away and ended up with something like a cover for a trashy novel of that era. A door can be the backdrop for so many different feelings and ideas. Last week our Mona Lisa pictures took us in many wonderful directions. This week I know that “doors” will have the same effect and I can’t wait to see what you have for us.

I really love the colors in this! And I don't think it looks like a trashy novel cover I believe it could be one for Jack the Ripper though:) TEE HEE

Well, it's not quite Wednesday here yet, but everyone is having all the fun, so I'll post mine. I write poems from time to time. I hope no one minds that I added one of my poems to the entry. It just seemed to fit.

Anne (cornucopia) said...

Another great challenge, ladies. Mine is on my blog at http://annescreativecornucopia.blogspot.com/2009/06/doors-enchanted-elevator.html

FYI: I’ve been having problems in Firefox when I try to post comments on other peoples’ google blogs where the page is set to: Comment Form Placement - Embedded below post (like this site). When the setting is Full page or Pop-up window, it works okay. I changed my own blog site to use Full page now. (I used Netscape to post my comment here.)

Anne (cornucopia) said...

uh-oh, my link was too long. The part after the blog name is 2009/06/doors-enchanted-elevator.html

sorry about that

Ozstuff, At first I have to say your image is really gorgeous! I can see the horror in a woman's face. Yes, she definitely has to escape! Your image has it all: It's very talented work and you have so much impression in it. I can only admire it. :)

And then, here's my entry:

Thank-you, Our THREE MUSES!Here's an entry...done on this very theme before I even knew what a layer was; or that hybrid digitals would one day become in the vanguard...Cheers to all!

Congrats on the success of your challenge blog -- that's well deserved. :) Of course, I had to give your second challenge a try, too. Here you can travel to Taos, NM and Munich, Germany to discover two unique doors.

Happy creating,
