I'm sure you all have noticed the absence of Marie (Ozstuff) in the last couple of weeks. Marie is recuperating from major surgery. In the interim, Ann and Bev will keep our Three Muses, Take a Word and Digitalmania challenges up and running. We know you join us in sending Marie our thoughts and wishes for a speedy recovery.


UPDATE 8/30: Marie's recovery is progressing well. She is expected to be moved to rehab very soon. Your notes of encouragement are being relayed to her.


UPDATE 9/3: Marie continues to make a slow recovery. Your notes of encouragement have been copied into a document and are being relayed to her. We all thank you for your concern.

CHALLENGE #3 -- WILD THINGS

It's me---Bev. I'm hoping this challenge proves to be great fun. There are so many ways to interpret wild things. Most, but not all, my wild things here have four legs! I'm anxious to see what wildness this way comes. Have at it, my blog friends!!

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.

A HUGE THANK YOU FROM THE MUSES !!

The Three Muses would like to thank you all for the astounding response to our very first challenge. We hoped to offer a venue for art of all types, and an atmosphere of generosity and support. We accomplished that beyond our greatest hopes, as evidenced by the broad diversity of responses, and the generous comments posted from artist to artist. We're looking forward to all the challenges to come! Given our time zones, when Bev is having her morning coffee, Ann is having lunch and Marie is getting ready for bed. This means one of us is usually available at any time, should you have questions. Again, THANK YOU, and a big standing ovation to all of you!

CHALLENGE 1 - MONA LISA

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.
