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.

The Three Muses Challenge - Steampunkerie

  The theme this week is STEAMPUNKERIE.  I love characters with attitude so I thought - "Why not a Steampunk Man"?
Have a lot of fun with this one.

THREE MUSES #95 - Land of Odd

I hope everyone enjoys a journey into the Land of Odd, where all sorts of peculiar characters are apt to show up.    This is a photo from Flickr Collage Images, obviously altered a bit.    Can't wait to see what characters appear in the Land of Odd this week!

THE THREEE MUSES 94 - FISH


Hi, it's me Ann, and my challenge to you for this week is to incorporate FISH into your artwork.  I can't wait to see your Fishy creations but just in case you need a little help to get started here is a sample for your inspiration.

As always we welcome all types of art in any medium you choose and all we ask is that you have fun and show us what you create.

Enjoy!

(Credits for my sample are on my blog.)

The Three Muses Challenge - Spring

The theme for this week's challenge is SPRING and what it means to you.  It is autumn in my part of the world  but dreaming about new life and cool greenery is good therapy.
For credits click HERE  The image is a freebie from Diane at Mixed Media Monday which, sadly, is no more.
Happy arting  from Marie aka Ozstuff.

THREE MUSES #92 - Ancestor

In her later years, my mother gave me her grandmother's photo album.  It was one of those wonderful old leather-bound albums with windowed pages for cabinet card photos.  By the time I received it, the pages were tattered and only a few photos remained, all unidentified.  The young man above is one of those.  I like his earnest expression and square jaw.   We share DNA, but I don't know who he is.   The benevolent face in the mist behind the Family Record is that of my grandmother.  I wish she had written his name on the back of his photo!
