Winner: "Concrete Butterfly"

There are many artists in our midst, but the one whose words sculpted a butterfly that defies gravity?

JeffScape!

Perhaps he does sting like a bee? At any rate, congratulations goes out to our first Hesperidan Apple (we always knew JeffScape was a fruit) and our second two-time back-to-back winner (the first being lovable Tom at Half-Moose)! Check out JeffScape's winning entry:

• "Effect, Part 1"
• "Effect, Part 2"
• "Effect, Part 3"

JeffScape's Muse will appear November 1st. Come back October 16th for... JeffScape's other Muse!

Reminder: "Concrete Butterfly"

Time to put those finishing touches on your creation. The butterfly will soon take flight. Sure, it sounds impossible, but we're creating magic here, right?

"Concrete Butterfly"

Mind or soul? Does Tom of Half Moose agree with our favorite Greeks who believe the butterfly is a symbol of the mind or psyche?  Or does he fall on the side of others around the globe who see it as a symbol of the soul? There’s one thing for sure, though. Tom isn't picturing a butterfly with gossamer wings for this muse.

"CONCRETE BUTTERFLY"

So which is it for you?  Will you present the saga of a soul hardened to stone or spin a tale of a psyche cast in concrete?  Put that chisel to work and fashion your vision for all to see.
