"Ghost Ship" - Postcard

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)

This week's Our Midweek Muse theme was "Red and Turquoise".

Sometimes one's inner muse leads one, when one least expects it. I didn't know what to create for this color challenge theme. And my initial idea, by accident, morphed in another direction.

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.

I created this using GIMP 2.10.38.

Comparison, not compassion.

Criticism, not compassion.

When everything I say, or don’t say, do, or don’t do, is wrong, the only remaining action I have is Silence.

When the only thing I seem to do is cause upsetment, the only remaining action I have is Silence.

It could have been different.

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)

This week's Our Midweek Muse theme was "Illustrate A Song".

Note: song title is I'm Good, but I focused on some of the lyrics within it (see below), which drove the title of my art piece (no pun intended).

Baby, I'ma have the best freakin' night of my life
And wherever it takes me, I'm down for the ride
Middle of the floor, that's where I'll be
No, I don't care no more, care no more
No, baby, nothing's gonna stop us tonight

Black Ledge Lighthouse - Week 29 - The Book of Days

© All Rights Reserved

The week29 theme for my Book of Days was Black Ledge Lighthouse.

I created this using GIMP 2.10.30.

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

The master index for all of my entries is here.

I took some poetic license with this. The map in the background is of the Groton / New London Connecticut area. The New London Ledge Light is allegedly haunted, but it doesn't look like the lighthouse image I used for my art piece.
