I guess the Big Ben bell's are soon tolling midnight in London, so it's time to publish a new challenge.

The topic this time is winter. Use any of the images above. Or express the word "winter" some how in your collage. Or use both, a image/images and a word. Word don't have to show up in your collage.

Post your creation to your blog or other website and leave a comment with a link to your collage.

I can't wait to see your creations.

Collage Obsession: Candles

We are living the darkest week of the year in the Northern hemisphere, and I really coudn't survive this without lighting a lot of candles every evening. I made this collage of candles on a spread of my "Black Journal", which is my another survival tool for the dark season.
Now I challenge you to make a piece of art with candles in it. You can interprete the theme in any way you like - this is a game, not a serious business.
Post your creation on your blog or other website and leave a comment with a link to your collage.
I hope I'll see a lot of candles!

TRIO

Your challenge for this week is to build a collage around a TRIO. Any trio will do; the three little pigs, the three billy goats Gruff, or a trio of saxophonists. How about three ballerinas in tutus, or the three wise men? You might like to depict "three, three, the rivals" from Green Grow the Rushes-O, or go into modern folk music with Peter, Paul, and Mary. Any trio that inspires you to create a collage is fine.

TRAVEL

A lot of us will be traveling for the holidays and/or have plans to do so in the new year ahead. Our theme this week is: TRAVEL. You may focus on a specific place or just the idea of traveling in general (by plane, train, car, etc...). It's up to you, just have fun!
