VERY MIXED BAG
November 8, 2013
WhooHoo! We had our first light dusting of snow this morning, but it's melted by now. Not worried...I know there's lots more to come! Has it snowed yet in your part of the world?
This week, there's a variety of art requested by the online challenge blogs...all fun to create...like this one for INSPIRATION AVENUE. I remember venturing up to my Aunt's attic... always an adventure to see what surprises I could find...

SUNDAY POSTCARD ART asked to see art with a map... I imagined a picture of Central Park in New York City... in the snow, to make it season-appropriate for the Big Apple. If you look carefully, there's a map of the streets of New York beneath Central Park! You can see it if you click on the picture to enlarge it!

THE THREE MUSES requested a piece of art with a grungy background...my favorite! I used a photo of the daughter of friends who dressed as a zombie for Halloween. Who would guess that in her alive life, she's a beautiful, bright high school girl?

Finally, for FLICKER's DIGITALMANIA group, we took our inspiration from the art of Joseph Christian Leyendecker, artist and illustrator. He did many magazine covers...a bit like Norman Rockwell. Having an ongoing fascination with the Roma (Gypsy) populations of the world, I turned to my stash of Gypsy pictures and photos. Many Roma men do work in the repairing and building trade.

Many thanks for your company this week... I hope you'll return for my next!
Have a good weekend and week ahead!
