It's my turn to host the Three Muses challenge and this week I have chosen the theme of SOMETHING OLD, SOMETHING NEW.This theme could have taken many turns, and I was tempted to create some steam punk, and then I thought about the something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue connected to the gifts given to a bride on her wedding day, but in the end I went for a more comic theme.
Meet Harold, a gentleman of a certain age, who has a liking for wearing ladies footwear. Also meet Doris and Daisy, who like nothing better than a good old gossip, and here they are seated on their luggage waiting for transport to their New Year's holiday whilst discussing Harold's outlanding footwear.

Ann, this is hilarious and wickedly clever. No doubt you will be saving the two old gossips and Harold for future scenarios. I love your sense of humour and creativity. It makes my day.
For heavens sake, this is hilarious!!!
What a foppish hero! He seems quite impressed with his new footwear, and totally unaware he's the butt of gossip from the ladies of the Rotundity Club. Well done, Ann!
Oh wow this is fantastic.
Brilliant idea and design. Love them.
Love your 'old & new' piece, Ann, what a giggle i got out of it! Will we see ore of those 'two old ducks??' When will you be in NZ & will you be coming to Wellington?
hilarious!! so much fun in this! i also like the little details like the flamingo on the ladder...
thanks for a great challenge and wishing you a happy new year!
Magnifique style, Ann!
Beautifully created.
Happy New Year to you.
Oh, Ann! Leave it to you to make me laugh with pleasure! Who else would think of those marvelous, shiny red boots for Harold's new footwear! Happy, Happy 2010! Hugs, Terri xoxo9
What a hoot! Love it!
This is so fun Ann- wonderful challenge and entry1 Have a wonderful and creative New Year!
Your imagination never ceases to amaze me Ann. Your pieces of art so often are like reading a mini novel. I can just imagine a great adventure evolving. Where did Harold get his fetish from I wonder, what kind of a mum would he have had?
Seriously though, a great theme and a very creative piece.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Great interpretation, looks fab. Happy new year to you.
Oh my LOVE those red boots too!!!
Really cute one and refreshing too!
I must tell you I love your name...
so cute and reminds me of an aunt I had named Lula...Happy New Year!
Have sent you an email through your Flickr page re: NZ visit.
Delightfully wicked Ann! Made me laugh this morning when I saw it and I left it open on my PC for most of the day!!!
Happy New Year to you!! xo
What a funny piece, Ann - you are a master of comics as well! I salute Harold for his freedom of prejudice - we should all wear something new once in a while. I wish you a Happy New Year, and look forward to all the great cahallenges of 2010!
This is very cool, I love the little touches, not too much, but just exactly enough in the background. Really nice work!
So fun and original! Love this take on the theme!
Wishing you all the best for 2010!
This is hilarious, love your take on the theme!
