"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.

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

This week's Our Midweek Muse theme was "Purple And Turquoise".

I'm struggling with artist's block again, so I had to enforce my pencils down rule on this, and it's more gold than anything else.

I created this using GIMP 2.10.36.

"Turquoise Lime / Golden Mermaid" - Postcard


© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)

This week's Sunday Postcard Art challenge was "Turquoise and Lime."

I started this by "stamping" two different ephemera backgrounds on a white postcard. Next, I blotted on turquoise and lime green splotches of color. I "stamped" a fish ornament at the top. Then I placed part of a poem about mermaids on this. I used the golden mermaid for a focal point, and included turquoise colored dolphin/sea monsters.

I created this using GIMP 2.8.22.
