Euterpe: The Muse of Song and Elegiac Poetry With this photo, I wanted to put Mariah's personality into an interpretation of Euterpe, rather than try and be Euterpe. While Euterpe is associated with a flute, Mariah is associated with her voice. Thus, it only makes sense that Mariah be holding a microphone. The incredibly tan skin is of more current beauty, and the lights show how songs are portrayed now. They're part of a performance. Ultimately, with this shoot, I wanted a more modern interpretation of Euterpe. |

Lana: Love your interpretation. Your styling is very diva-ish which I think is proper for your choice of Muse. You gave us a lot of energy this week. I wish we could see your face closer, since you look very beautiful here. Nice interpretation of your photo. Creative.

Janice: Honestly, come to think of it, I couldn't think of a more perfect muse for you. I like the pose, and concept and how it looks like you're caught in action. Also those legs! But I think with your eyes a bit open, the photo would've been a lot stronger

Amanda: This is just okay for me. I love your interpretation of the muse and you have sold it well, and it really was the perfect choice for you. The main issue I have with it is the background almost completely engulfs you, even with your darkened skin (although I much prefer lighter skin, it does work for you). The styling and pose work and your concept is just brilliant... but I still can't look past the lighting and how I can't connect to your eyes. It's just good, it isn't great, it's a starting point that needs a little more to it. Hopefully, that's enough to get you on to the next round  |

Morgan: Because you are such a awesome diva, its no surprise to me that you could pull this off well. You look magical and flawless. It looks as if your shoes and the microphone is made out of gold! It would have been good to get more of a close up of you and to see you more of the center of attention cos the background is stealing away the attention from you a little bit (how dare it!) because of its brightness. But overall this is a great shot and connects well to your muse.

Zooey: It's like a roller coaster ride with you. You were just down last week, but you're back on the upswing this week. Definitely a much stronger showing in both the modeling and theme aspects. I do wish we could see you a bit better in this photo. In the end, the size is fine, even if I wish you were bigger, thus, more easily visible to better see the details of you.
