Three Muses Challenge - Architecture

The sisters felt sorely out-of-place returning to the old homestead. They had truly... sadly... left their roots behind...
The cracker house photo came from the Florida State Photo Collection and Archives, the sisters were found during a Google search for vintage dress patterns.

  2. Startling contrasts in this piece. The cracker house photo is a real find, and using the contrasting style of the "ladies" with the splash of color is a stroke of genius. Good work!

  9. Your most beautiful picture reminded me of Dolly Parton! Don't laugh. I saw a documentary on her life some years ago and she and her large family lived in such a tiny house.
    I love old houses which have so much character and I love the idea of the "girls" making good in the world and then returning to their roots. This is such a lovely and creative piece of art.
