"Eluard Ernst" - Postcard

This week's theme at My Soul's Dark Imagination was "Enigmatic Paul And Gala Eluard". I missed the challenge for Evolutionary Max Ernst, so my piece is a combination of both themes.

It's the same old theme since 1916
In your head, in your head
They're still fighting
With their tanks and their bombs
And their bombs and their guns
In your head, in your head they are dying

"Celestial Bubbles" - Postcard

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)

This week's Sunday Postcard Art theme was "Bubbles".

I had to enforce my "pencils down!" rule for this one. I found a celestial bubbles inspiration piece on the Internet, that I tried to base my design on, but in the end, this looks nothing like the one I found. And my bubbles look more like circles, even though they are bubbles.

Note: I am still resolving computer issues, so I apologize for my lack of comments, etc.

"Freaky Clown" - Postcard

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)

This week's My Soul's Dark Imagination theme was "Freaky Circus Clowns".

Awhile ago, I found this freaky Pierrot clown image, so he seemed perfect for this. Any clown is scary, whether or not they are in a circus. I don't know why I don't like them, but I don't.

Note: I've been getting errors trying to leave comments on blogs, but I don't know why. Deann left me a comment, saying I'm being marked as spam.

"Olympiad Runners" - Postcard

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)

This week's Sunday Postcard Art theme was "Sports".

This art piece came to life almost on its own. I started with the ancient olympiad runners, then saw "motion" when I added a circles / waves image behind them. I colored the waves blue, then added more motion and circles with the stars. The background had circles and diamonds in it, too.

I used the wooden lid from a jar candle to create a decoupage circle art piece that I'm going to add to my Halloween decorations.

The steps are similar to the ones here.

This week's Sunday Postcard Art theme was "Mark Making".

I searched for examples of this type of art, but I ended up going where my muse took me. I hope this is what the style is like.

Round Flower Garden - Photograph

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)

I took that photograph in my yard this past week.

During the 2020 covid-19 pandemic Lockdown here in Connecticut, US, I added a new flower bed to my yard. Some of the flowers in it were annuals, and some were perennials.

Last year (2021), I had a problem with my left hand, and was unable to do any weeding, etc. As a result, all of my flower garden efforts in 2020 were for naught, because weeds overtook all of the gardens again.

So now, in 2022, I am once again trying to reclaim the flower beds. I started with the round (circle) garden. The three Sage (Lavender?) plants are new, and filled in spaces where annual plants had been. I also planted some seeds that I harvested, which I hope sprout.

The Super Bowl is this coming Sunday, February 13, 2022, here in the United States (US). Unlike Christmas 2021, Fauci isn't advising people to turn away the unvaccinated from their house door step, nor is he advising against private gatherings of more than 30 people, so all of the Super Bowl Parties are good to go! And this week, several Democrat Governors in the US started announcing end dates for mask mandates. It won't be long now, before President Biden announces covid-19 has been conquered. Perhaps he will do that on March 1, 2022, when he gives his State of the Union address to Congress, and he can say, "Mission Accomplished".
