NOTE TO OUR LOYAL ARTISTS

NOTE TO OUR LOYAL ARTISTS It is with sadness we have decided to close the Take-a-Word challenge. Since Marie's passing nine months ago, we have continued to administer the three challenges (Take-a-Word, Three Muses, and Digitalmania), but we have a need to lessen the load a bit. We ask that our loyal followers here at Take-a-Word continue to share your talents at Three Muses or Digitalmania (which is a Flickr site). We are immensely grateful for your participation for the past ten years or so, and hope to see you there. The bee challenge will be the final challenge for Take-a-Word. Ann and Bev

Take a Word Challenge - Insects

This week our theme word is INSECTS and this most beautiful artpiece featuring dragonflies comes from Rein whose stamping and tinting talents are superb.  Thankyou, Rein.  I'm sure you all will be inspired to create something unique and wonderful!!

    Just wanted to come back and say about Rein's inspiration piece - it does an unusually good job of conveying depth and motion. Doing four dimensions in a two dimensional medium's of course hard, but I'm finding it extremely hard to do with stamps. Will be studying this piece for some time to come. Thanks very much for sharing it.

    After seeing Rein's very beautiful example, I hesitate to post my rather dark tongue-in-cheek piece...but here goes!
