Three Muses - Surreal

Surreal is one of my favorite things to do, so I was glad to hear Marie say it's what she chose this week. The desert scene, the camel caravan, the shore bird, and the sailing ship were all found cybersurfing and put together for this unlikely scenario. The back part of the fish is from a Nancy Baumiller Crowabout collage sheet, the front from Tangie Baxter, and the wings are part of a freebie from Tammara. I wrote the little rhyme. Thanks for looking!

  9. Wonderful illustrative piece!
    And you've already combined it with next weeks' challenge!
    Which came first, the words or the images...or did the whole kind of come together after you saw and started playing around with the first one or 2?
    Inquiring minds want to know!
