TGIF! Faces of a Femme Fatale!

Garbo

picture from 1989 Life magazine

Special issue Hollywood 1939-1989

I didn't do much to alter the photo, just used 2 filters to soften the image.

Three Muses/keys

I found this picture in a decorating magazine. I loved the thought of unlocking one door and another one opens and another! Added an old key on the door arch and took a picture, did a little PS.

Saturday surprise! More than ONE!

I got this at a free image blog. I went back to 5 of the places I follow and couldn't find which one!

Any way, I loved the design of this old playing card and thought it fit in perfectly with the theme! I did nothing to it!

If you recognize it as an image you posted for use, please show yourself and I can give you credit!

Testing the market with digital art!

I am a member of my local art society and member of the "circuit" group. We show paintings at a series of 8 local restaurants and change the paintings every 2 months. I had to ask permission to try selling my digital art because the group does not consider it "fine art". These 2 paintings are 16"x 18". As you can see, I am a fan of LARGE mats.

The nest is pure digital on watercolor paper. I added the picket fence at the bottom

This picture is mixed media collage. I did a challenge for Helga using " brushes" from nature. I really liked the way it turned out and has alot of texture. I added a nest, some leaves and a feather to complete the collage.

Next week we change our paintings and I thought I would give these a try! Pricing is always difficult. Both are marked at $70. I want to sell!
