Three Muses: Envelope

Just What is Inside the Envelope?

Did you really expect me to follow the instructions? I really wanted to see just what is behind the postmark and inside the envelope!
Have enjoyed the challenge, am off now for 3 weeks, work and play!

Sunday Postcard Art: 50's Pin-up!

I just could not go past PAT BOONE!! How we hung on every word in... April Love... Love Letters in the Sand.. Twixt Twelve and Twenty!
And how we longed for him to kiss his on screen love.... and he never did!
Is this really showing my age...think I will get the old 78 out and put it on the turntable .. one more time!

Thursday Challenge: 3 Things

Me, Myself and I

Sunrise on the east coast of Australia with my thoughts.

Three Muses: Word

EMPOWERED.

Words found on old manuscript... with profound meaning.
Thanks for another great challenge.

Friday 4x4 Bits and Pieces

Notebook Scribbles!

some of my Notebooks are only "bits and pieces" never really staying on one subject.

This image is a collection of bits and pieces out of one of my notebooks! Stapled, smudged, blotted, drawn, scribbled to make a 4x4 that is 'bits and pieces' of detritus from my jottings!

Thursday Challenge: Autumn

AUTUMN GRASSES.

Just as the Northern Hemisphere is going into Autumn, we in the southern part of the world are starting to 'blossom'!! Autumn Grasses is the remnants of what was during our Autumn... gives me a chance to see just what lines do within a design

Three Muses: Numbers

Have taken a section of a huge piece of work that is in my latest exhibition..... Memory Cloth#12 Numbers Lost.
It is the count of people lost in the horrific fires in Victoriaq, Australia, in February 2009. Our son and his young family lost all but what they stood up in. If you would like to see more of the exhibition visit.... www.glenysmann.viviti.com go to "Consequences Exhibition".

Thursday Challenge: Squares

Leaf Litter!
Multiples of images just indicate how the leaves fall to make a litter on the ground. I have a huge Ginkgo in my front yard and during the Autumn the ground is a mass of bright yellow!!! I love it!!

3 Muses Challenge .. Back to Nature

'From a Grain of Sand...." I chose this as my theme this week as I sometimes think the we come from a grain of sand to return to a grain of sand...(Hope I am not too deep with this analysis!!)
I used two images of sunlight on the beach, placed them on top of each other, changed the transparency of the top one and added filters.... all done in Photoshop. I do hope that you enjoy my take on "Back to Nature".

Thursday Challenge: Buildings.. New York, New York

Where in the world is there another consolidated mass of building, like there is in New York!!
Visited that fabulous city last year and ended up with a 'crink' in my neck!! What a town.

Three Muses: Doors

I wanted to show you someone else's art.... I am a fan of good graffiti and found this door on a wall in Brisbane Queensland, Australia.... thought it appropriate to use for this challenge.

Thursday Challenge: Words.. Movie Titles

Words, letters all flow into one another like a strip of old film!!

Three Muses: Odd Bird

As usual, I did not read the caption for this week's challenge!! I went the other way and created this Odd Bird.... my Xray Bird!! Nothing unusual about this creature, other than you very rarely see a bird as unkempt as him!!
How I love these challenges to make me really think beyond the square!! Thanks.

ATC Love's warm fuzzy feeling!

Just could not resist this feeling of affections for toadstools in my garden! It just gave me the "AAAAAAHH" feeling!

4x4 Friday

So??? Just where is North?

Thursday Challenge:Bundle of Tags

OOOPS!! not so vintage! Bundled together with an old saftey pin.... wending their way through the atmosphere!

Three Muses: Mail Art

I always image that... all the emails that go missing are out in the cosmos somewhere.... someone will be writing furiously to get them back to us!

How the mind works!!

Scary... sometimes!!

4x4 Friday

4x4 Friday "Lavender and Lime" : A Waterlily!

Theme Thursday... Something Round

"Bubble of Thought"

I am sure that all our thoughts are out there in the 'cosmos' somewhere...in bubbles.... just waiting to pop when we finally act on our thoughts! I know that I have many out there floating around waiting for the right time to land!

Three Muses: The Owl and I on a Magic carpet ride

This image has come from deep in my imagining..... using layers, filters and brushes, Photoshop allowed me the magic of creating what was in my mind for this challenge.
