I took the idea of brain development as a starting point. I painted this image of a brain using watercolours and water-based paint.
I then scanned the image and using a graphics editor added a text overlay. The numbers are the block numbers taken from my opheliafu steemdb.com page. As most of the block numbers are are linked to upvotes I also added the upvote symbol, travelling up the pathways and inputting into the brain.
I added a background layer, I tried out a few colour variations before settling on magenta.
'Steemed brain'
I am offering this work up for collaboration (and any images in this post), so let me know if you have any ideas on what you would do with a 'Steemed brain'! It might be the starting point for an article, a new piece of art, a poem, just use your imagination!
Feel free to post your outcomes and links in the comments section below, and link in this post and @kevinwong's post if you make your own post so that others can join in too.
Wonderful work, very ingenious, I love the color combination, it is a pleasure to visit your blog lady @opheliafu, I am always surprised by something very good, thank you very much

The magenta one is especially edgy.. in a way lol. Reminds me of Akira, somehow. Thanks for the great piece!
Maybe do a post about Akira and use it.

Whoa! I love this. The magenta is my favorite, without a doubt.
Is there a national Link Your Brain up to the Network day? You never know!
It wouldn't surprise me if it came up soon. The holidays that I have seen in the past 127 days have been crazy...some more than others. Lol
Digital madness! I will be having a looky!
Are you going to embrace that madness?
I am going to try!!
I like the yellow one ; )
...one idea that comes to mind is to rename it from "steamed brain" to "steemcortex" ;)
A nice idea.
Yay I love initiative like that here.
Glad you like it!
