One of the definitions of a muse is “the goddess or the power regarded as inspiring a poet, artist, thinker, or the like.” This is certainly appropriate for Amber Morais and Sarah Cooper, known collectively as “Eternal Muse.” I have been trying to track down this elusive pair for over two years, after hearing about [...]
