This week's Our Midweek Muse theme was "You've Got Male". (I was too late for the Sunday Postcard Art deadline, where the theme was "Faces", so I'm using this as my masculine piece for OMM.)

I created this using GIMP 2.10.38.

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

Growing up, one of my favorite movies was the 1932 movie Island of Lost Souls. The horror scenes were mostly unseen off screen, allowing my own imagination to complete the scenes. Whenever the "Sayer of the Law" scenes happened, my brothers would chant the replies along with the characters in the movie.

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.
