Mixed Media Monday "Purples and Blues"


The theme at MMM is Purples and Blues. The example by Rosie is just stunnings. Blues and purples always seem to evoke a kind of mystical feel. I decided to stick with Blues rather than purples, mainly because I have no decent purple colour at the moment. I've given my contribution the title "Feeling Blue"

    This is one of my favourite images. She looks so lovely and very contemplative. "Feeling Blue" just seems to suit this piece so well.

    What a beautiful picture - very soft and other-worldly. You may have left out the purples but you didn't include pink!! That is what I did when I confused one challenge with another.
