Alice and the tree of numbers

I made this for the Three Muses 'Numbers' challenge.

Doubles, Bats and Fog

Three Muses Challenge is

'Victorian'

I had to make it a little spooky...

That whole era seems a bit creepy to me, 

I read a story about a young 

Victorian girl that was left home alone for an afternoon.

While walking in the garden, she happened to glance up at her house and thought 

she saw the curtain draw back from an upstairs bedroom..

Since she was certain she was alone, she figured it was merely 

the breeze blowing through an open window. 

As the day drew to a close. she too, decided to retire for the evening.

She went up to her bedroom and stopped in front of her mirror to pin back a stray curl..

The face staring back at her was her own, but the eyes were glazed and distant.. the lips curled

in a malevolent smile,

the chest did not rise and fall with breath, it was still.

By the time her family returned home, she was delirious with fever.

She recounted the events of the day, her eyes bright with feverish terror..

her last word was

"doppelgänger" 

While there isn't a doppelganger in the image above, this is the picture I have in my head

of what the young girl might have looked like.

Thanks for looking:)

a teacup and a teddy bear

Three muses challenge this week is 'teacup'

I painted this picture about eight years ago..

It's supposed to be me and my scruffy old teddy bear....I used a little digital magic to 

adapt it to this theme.

A Storm of Stars...

 

This week the Three Muses Challenge is 'Umbrella'

Covered in books and stars

Three Muses challenge this week is Books..

"Books are a uniquely portable magic"

-Stephen King

 

Not very long ago, I had a dream about walking through a forest.

As I was walking, I kicked something, when I looked down

I saw there were stars on the ground..

then I noticed that the tree in front of me

was covered in books and stars.

When the wind blew through you could hear the book pages rustling,

it almost sounded like someone was whispering.

The stars were swaying back and forth like heavy fruit.

In order to remove a book from the branches, 

you had to ask the tree's permission.

I was extremely excited and thought perhaps I had died,

since I'd never seen a book tree before.

 (but have always wanted one)

Trying to decide what book to read first was my only worry.

It was amazing!

 

Three Muses Challenge-Stars

For my part I know nothing with any certainty,

 but the sight of the stars makes me dream.

-Vincent Van Gogh

 

Fruit Fairy

"Be very mindful of your actions & deeds.
Negativity grows just as fast if not faster than positivity.
Plant seeds of kindness, love and peace
And your harvest will be abundant living.”
