The Grotto della Sibilla in the Umbrian Mountains which was first mentioned in classical legend. Guerino the Wretch reaches a mountain pass near Norcia in Umbria where he meets with the Devil. The Devil, of course, wants Guerino's soul and tempts him by describing a subterranean kingdom where every delight will be his. Seemingly, in this kingdom, trees flower and fruit at the same time and there is no pain or age or sorrow.
Baba's Spirit Servant and the Medusa are simply no match when I am with 'The Nine' and their beloved Pegasus. A simple call on my flute and the rustle of gowns may be heard all over the realm. Baba really should know when she is out classed.

What a great gift your creativity is! And this tone, without colour, is mystifying, exactly the right mood. Ride on! The all powerful muses.
I am humbled by the gift of creativity Imogen. It is the most divine thing when it surges through me and an idea appears, seemingly from nowhere. With this image I had problems with the African muse. No matter what I did when I scanned she simply looked too dark. Then I put it into a form of grayscale and bingo! I lost the vibrance of her headware but I am happy with the overall effect.
I see color...and lots of it but then again I do spend a lot of time in the dark and shadows!

Yes Heather and Anita Marie, and how exciting that the monotone occured to create a oneness. Yes, there is both colour and shadows here, to great effect! This is very exciting.
I can see what you mean about the color being there Anita Marie. Interesting that this image demanded to be presented like this. The end product is, as you say, exciting Monika. I am having a quieter spell today, meditating upon what to do for Halloween and All Soul's Day. Baba Yaga, as the figure who guides folk to the Underworld is calling me to take people across the lake in swan boats.
Sounds wonderful. This is such a big never ending story, isn't it?
Oops! Perhaps I forgot to tell people that once they come through the door into this realm it is hard to find you way out again. Snigger!
