"Beltane Sunrise / Beltane Sunrise Knight" - Postcard

Today is Beltane.

This is a very loose interpretation of Beltane. I like the first piece better than the second one that has the knight in it, but I'm posting both.

I created this using GIMP 2.10.18.

The vintage images are from an Internet search. (See the side of my blog for links.)

Maybe the next time I'll be yours and maybe you'll be mine

I don't know if it's even in your mind at all
It could be me
At this moment in time
Is it in your mind at all
It should be me, it could be me
Forever

"Crockery / Moon Goddess" - Postcard

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)
This week’s Three Muses challenge was "Crockery."

I know the theme was supposed to feature crockery, but when I found this catalog header, I went where my muse took me. First I added the blue star dress onto the woman. I cut the background stars from a different postcard that I had made, and colored them blue. I used several layers of images to create the background.

I created this using GIMP 2.8.16.

The vintage images are from an Internet search. (See the side of my blog for links.)

The quote "The night walked down the sky with the moon in her hand." is by Frederick L. Knowles.

The fonts are:

"Beltan E'en and the Kelpie" - Postcard

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)

This week’s Sunday Postcard Art challenge was "Fish."

I used some poetic license on this one. My piece is actually focused on Beltan E'en and the Kelpie. The tragic ending results in the maiden being carried down to the bottom of the sea, where the fish swim, and where she drowns.

I created this using GIMP 2.8.14.

The vintage images are from an Internet search. (See the side of my blog for links.)

The words are from the poem "The Kelpie of Corrievreckan" by Charles Mackay.

The font is Benjamin Franklin.

(I took some poetic license by including Pegasus on this. He is unrelated to Beltane.)
