Three Muses Challenge..Artist of Choice..

I loved this Challenge. So many wonderful artists to choose from but I found the picture above by a modern artist, Mikhail Federenko, born in 1960. I think the model is his wife. I love this kind of art and I turned her into a proud Warrior Queen. I hope you like her.
