Angelique

This is my entry for the Take A Word challenge this week where the theme is (one of my favorites) "Angel".  Despite having numerous beautiful angel images in my cache, I created a bit of an abstract angel from bits and pieces. Neither religious nor mythical I like to envision an angel as human with a sense of  an "aura" of wings; of transcendence or the possibility of having angelic traits as called upon in life. The invisible becomes real and visible to those who care to see.  Imagery from Dover books, Holliewood and Finecrafted designs at Deviantscrap and backgrounds from Pink Lotty.

Lady of the Beasts

Lovely you are and kind
to the tender young of ravening lions.
For sucklings of all savage
beasts that lurk in the lonely places
you have sympathy.
                                   Aeschylus




This is my entry for the Three Muses challenge this week where "Animal Magic" is the theme. Imagery from Dover books, Finecrafted designs Lorie Davison and the wonderful animal imagery  from Tumblefish studios. Background from Pink Lotty.

Envision

This is  my entry for the Take a Word challenge this week "Steampunk". A dreamer, a visionary,a soul from the past ; a seer of the future.  My steampunk maiden  is a compilation of grunge and lightness and mixed emotions.  Imagery from Dover books, Finecrafted designs and Rosey Posey

Transcendence

This is my entry for the Take A Word challenge this week where "wings" are the theme. An ethereal dream scape of transcendence by flight and fancy. Wings almost always conjure up a sense of  lightness, escape and spiritual ascendance to me- a lifting- up skyward motion. Imagery for this digital collage from Dover books, Rosey Posey, Holliewood and Beth Rimmer.

Fresco Rose

This is my entry for this week's Take a Word challenge "Roses". Old world imagery "Mary Queen of Roses" from Dover books, blended with rose imagery with the "Fresco" filter added in Photoshop, and background from Pink Lotty.  I'm posting a bit early as I have to work tomorrow but will be back in the afternoon to join in with the challenge!

All Hallows Eve

Taking a break  from a very busy October 31st this little "Witch"  is my entry for the Collage Obsession challenge this week.  Imagery from Finecrafted Designs, Holliewood, Lorie Davison and some googled images as well.

Hallowed Veil

This is my eerie take on the Three Muses "vintage" theme this week. A spectral visitation in the form of  a long past vintage beauty who for whatever reason appears on an old glass slide; beckoning the beholding viewer deeply into her trance....
