Three Muses: Artist Affirmation

An interesting challenge from the Three Muses today, courtesy of our very creative fellow artist Bill.  Here's how the challenge was explained to us: "An artist affirmation is a statement that confirms you ARE an artist, encourages you as an artist or states your intentions as an artist.... Create a picture that shows your own style - perhaps a favourite of yours, something you are especially proud of. Add a word or a quotation to the picture. The world is your oyster. This can be any style, any theme. Have fun."

I chose to use a digital collage I recently created for Collage Obsession, where the theme was "YOU." The lettering on the flower, the background of the collage, and the eyes are mine. The statement at the bottom was inspired by my blog title.

Sunday Postcard Art: Altered Image/Secret Garden

 This week's SPA challenge is to alter a Mucha image of a woman to produce a piece of art with a Secret Garden theme.  The poppy images I used in my digital collage are adapted from Jessica Sporn.
