Ship's Log of the Dragonflower
Departure
Clear blue skies. Raised anchor and sailed on the morning tide. A favorable wind bodes well for the journey ahead.
Into the Sunflower Sea
A swirling vortex, a whirlpool and all hands on deck!
Through the wormhole
The good ship Dragonflower still sails, but on what ebon shores! And what strange stars are these above? And in the darkness yon, what figure looms!
The Sunless Sea
A new day never dawned, and night stretches on into an endless gloom. The sea, a crystalline expanse of radiating cracks. And we sail on.
A new beginning
And yet life finds a way, finesse or force, by hook and crook. And here we are, and where here is matters less than what we are. And we are voyagers! And we are artists, yes, and lovers. And here there will be no war.
My original digital art - every image in this post started as sunflower photography
absolutely orgasmic! i especially love the jewel-toned pic, but i love the process too. from sunflower to jewel encrusted hive. delicious!
Wow! What a juicy response :) That gold/jewel mandala I am really happy with, if you view it full size there is an insane amount of detail
Sweeet!
This one is cool as all get out!
A lot of depth. Good stuff man! :)
Thanks dude :) I knew when I was taking the pictures that the sunflower seed/flower texture was going to be a goldmine for my art process. I am getting some awesome results out of this series.

I always suspected sunflowers where evil! Further proof they are bigger on the inside then what they appear. Black magic I tell you.
Yeah I fall pretty far into this one
OMG where did we got to now
I think google map told me to check out this strange flower.....
..... wait
THE TUNNEL IS HAPPENING
and now there are strange and wonderful colours, each of them telling me its passage and now i am in a golden throne room
...
AMAZING

For a moment I thought you had moved house, then I started reading on. That sunflower sure is monsterish and I love to see how it evolves into an art piece that seems to be the brainchild of Moebius and a dragon.
Very poetic too. How much sunflower seeds did you smoke for this? ;>)
That is so cool to produce those images from that flower. Amazing what nature has around us. I always wonder how the sunflower manages to stand up yet grow so quickly.
Thanks! Yeah the textures and details that nature has on display are really mind blowing when you stop to notice them :) The sunflower is truly amazing, standing next to them feels like a cartoon
