The Three Muses Challenge - Windows

There is a story to my collage. Florence floats, lost in time, reminiscing on a life where the choices she made were not always the right ones.

  2. I'm thinking she's thinking her hopes and dreams for the opera and Gay Paree are down the tubes, since she chose to marry that dastardly Doyle Donogood!! Great page, Marie!

  4. What a wonderful piece.
    I love the composition of this artwork.
    I wonder if the words of that play she was to be in
    are playing repeatedly in her mind.

  10. Beautifully done and what a fabulous story you've woven into those images Marie. It always amazes me how something as modern as digital can be used to make something so seemingly vintage but you have managed it perfectly!
