Silhouetted In The Moonlight

Silhouetted in the moonlight you'll linger on

Hi, guys! This is my contribution to The Three Muses which  challenge this week is Silhouettes. I was very much inspired by the song that entitles this collage.

Traveling back in time through art






Hi there! This week challenge in Take a Word is couples and I decided to invite my husband to a time travel through art. I had so much fun!

Works of art: Jacob Cornelisz van Oostsanen Painting a Portrait of His Wife (1550) by Dirck Jacobsz (1497 - 1567); Mr and Mrs Andrews (1750) by Thomas Gainsborough (1727–1788); American Gothic (1930) by Grant Wood (1891–1942) .

Icy blondes in hot hats

Charlize Theron, Gwyneth Paltrow, Vera Farmiga, Naomi Watts and Michele Pfeiffer in hats

Hi there! The challenge this week in Take a Word is Hats'n'Things and it made me want to use steampunk hats in my collage. When I was wondering who would have the privilege of wearing them, I don't know why but I thought in Hitchcock's icy blondes  and which actresses could replace Grace Kelly, Eve Marie Saint, Tippi Hedren, Kim Novak etc nowadays. These are my actresses of choice in their marvelous hats. Sorry for the lack of "things".

Thanks to Mr. Whiskers, Finecrafted Designs and Kim Klassen.

Le croissant de lune

Hi! Take a Word asked for MOON and I decided to try a different approach. The only problem is that now I need a snack!

I googled cookies and croissant; background by ShippD; the pair are Ryan and Tatum O'Neal in Paper Moon (1973).

Home

Where we love is home, home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts.
~Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., Homesick in Heaven

The theme for this week is HOME in Take a Word. This is my contribution.

The couple is a black and white old photo that I colored; all other elements (altered) by Createwings Designs.
