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

I took those photographs at Greenfield Hill Cemetery in Fairfield, CT this past week.

This cemetery has my favorite gravestone: a skull and cross bones. It was just beginning to rain while I was here, and I liked how the raindrops looked on the gravestone. They straightened all of the gravestones on the left side of the cemetery, so that they are all level now. It also looks like they cleaned them, because the white gravestones are more noticeable now.

I took those photographs in my yard this past week.

It's amazing the beauty one can find in nature, if one pays attention to one's surroundings, and sees what is hiding in plain sight. Those rain water droplets on the various leaves almost looked like ice due to the dim sunlight that shimmered in them.

This week’s Sunday Postcard Art challenge was "November Rain."

I combined modified lines from a song and a poem to inspire my piece:

Stormy weather follows misery
November rain
Wash away my story
And sweep me out to Sea
Where the mist resembles the rain

I created this using GIMP 2.8.14.

This week’s Thank God It’s Friday challenge number 106 was “It’s Raining.” I was honored and thrilled to be asked to be the Guest Designer for this week. I created a scene showing a couple engrossed in each other and oblivious to the nighttime rain that had just started falling. I drew and created most of this image myself, using GIMP. Credits:

The couple and tree are from the New York Public Library Digital Gallery.

The baluster is from Clipart ETC.
