Playing with my digital camera...

How nice of this cute squirrel to pose long enough for a photo shoot! I think this is a first for me to be able to take close up pictures of any wildlife critter. It didn't even mind the flashes. What a ham! Perhaps it was cooperating because it found a pay load of black sunflower seeds on the deck. Maybe it was just too full to move! LOL

Challenges- "SundayPostcardArt" & "On the Darkside"

I think I've been watching too much "Grim" on Hulu! LOL Of course this is not like the series but I have included two grims.

This creation works for two challenges this week. Yeah!

Welcome back Art on the Darkside!

The Three Muses Challenge - Outside the Frame - Birds

I have two offerings today for the Three Muses Challenge.

The top image is from an Ancient Odin Myth. I am representing his two ravens (Huginn and Muninn) as protectors to the hidden panel of Odin.

The image below was a challenge in itself by using the colors of yellow and gray together... which is not my forte'... however, I do like how it turned out. Funny how I created this right before this challenge came up! Was it a just coincidence or am I really intuitive?

Pink Saturday & So Artful Challenge

Here is my image for Pink Saturday and the So Artful Challenge combined. The So Artful Challenge theme just happens to be Kraft, Red, White, and Pink. What a great color combo!
AND because I used mostly pink, I thought it was perfect for Pink Saturday as well. Hope you all have a wonderfully, creative, spectacular weekend!

Here's the link for: So Artful Challenge:

A Special Valentine

A beautiful single lavender mauve rose. What could be better than that?

How about two beautiful roses?

Aren't these the cutest, tiny flowers ever? Now there are two
beautiful roses and bunches of cute, tiny flowers. Just lovely.

So how about eight beautiful roses, bunches of cute, tiny flowers,
and a glittered, red heart?

Here is a closer view of those beautiful roses, cute, tiny flowers and a glittered red heart.

And one more close up before you get to see...

Yes! This beautiful arrangement of one dozen gorgeous roses, bunches of cute, tiny flowers, shiny green leaves, a red glittered heart, topped off with with a lavender bow of gingham and sheer ribbon was sent to me from My Special Valentine! I know I keep saying beautiful but that is exactly what they are...BEAUTIFUL. What a wonderful surprise! Thank you Valentine!

Happy Valentines Day

"No measure of time with you will be long enough,
but we'll start with forever"
Edward Cullen

May you forever have layer upon layer of
love, happiness, and joy in your heart
Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Pink Saturday!

Tweaked with dark tones in photoshop cs

Now pink texture was added to the background

And now you know what the flower is. :)
I hope you all have a terrific Pink Saturday!

Moo Challenge - Love

Hi all!

This is a Moo. A Moo is a 1.1"x2.8" tiny work of art. Thanks to Photoshop and Dover Publications, I could create one this week.

I would also like to thank my friend Kathleen. If it weren't for her, I would have forgot this week. She made a lovely Moo and it's on her blog at:
http://moo-mania.blogspot.com/2012/02/love-liebe.html

So...this weeks challenge at:
http://moo-mania.blogspot.com/2012/02/love-liebe.html
is Love.

Hope everyone is having a terrific week!

Soon it will be Valentine's Day

I can't believe it is already February! So now I have switched my focus to hearts for Valentine's Day. Two are new, two are modified new, and two are older. The two newest were created during what I like to call "play days". These are experimental days where just about anything goes and I never know where it's going to go until I'm done. I really love those days.
