FINALE - "Wisdom of the Ancients" - A Collaborative Art Journey including 17 Steemit Artists and 36 Collaborative MasterpiecessteemCreated with Sketch.

in #art8 years ago (edited)

This is our 13th finished collaborative art collection!!!

I AM PERSONALLY ASTOUNDED AT THE MAGNIFICENCE OF OUR CREATIONS.

I began this collaborative play in fall 2016 to earn rewards for my trip to Steemfest in Amsterdam.

I was beyond thrilled at Steemfest to meet some of the artists that contributed to the collaborations, and I was even more inspired and delighted to continue engaging our talents to build a strong Steemit artists community.

Building it, we are!!  We are growing stronger with every interaction, and I am in more appreciation everyday for your energetic infusion into building a cohesive and supportive community--and just look at what we can do with such incredible ease:


The final results  of Collaboration No. 13

~**~**~ "W I S D O M    O F    THE   ANCIENTS" ~**~**~

I offered up an Invitation to collaborate on this photograph

I grew up in the mountains so I am naturally a tree person.  I really love how they speak to me.   I am in great appreciation of every part of the tree, and especially love all the personal little quirks they develop over time, showing their own individual personality.   I believe trees contain wisdom of the ancients, standing tall and breathing the gift of life of the divine.  This is a photo I took in the morning's sun of a knot on  the tree beside our deck.  It's a little nook where little hidden faerie treasures are known to be found.

Then, 16 more artists worked their magic 

to produce 36 Collaborative Masterpieces 

from my one photograph and their imaginations.  


Open up this tremendous sound by @verbal-d "Wisdom of the Ancients Beat".   @verbal-d is creating a sound album of these collaborations.  I'm extremely excited to see the evolution of this collaboration!

"Home Tweet Home" by @opehliafu.  A creation true to her charming character.


El Ojo que todo lo ve en el universo LOTR by @aniestudio. @aniestudio's posts are shared in Spanish, extending our artist community to our Spanish speaking artist friends.


"Komm zu mir, Baby" by @aksinya.  @aksinya always shares multiple intriguing images.

...in a good way


and in a hard way


and also "1+1" by @aksinya combining two of my original images "Wisdom of the Ancients" and "Artist's Eye"


"Winnie and Honey" also by @aksinya:


@aksinya's new tablet creation "Mysterious and Beautiful Winter"


and one more by @aksinya: If Stars Are Lit It Means There Is Someone Who Needs 


@saramiller got inspired by one of @aksinya's images and the sound created by @verbal-d, and funneled her energy into creating this:


"The King; The Wisdom of The Ancients"  by @mariandavp.  @mariandavp is a great supporter of the @gardenofeden (as am I) and she always donates her rewards to their humanitarian efforts.  Thank you @mariandavp for bringing your talents to the table, for your generous heart, and paying it forward!


"Monkeying Around"  by @meesterboom.  @meesterboom always makes creative use of the original image and often gives me a good chuckle.


"Wisdom of the Ancients Gemeinschaftskunstwerk" -  @shortcut.  I wasn't sure whether or not to consider each of these individual images.  If they are individuals, he made 26 all by himself!!!!  @shortcut has turned these into gifs--very entrancing to watch--and ideal for the makings of an electronic music video.    Be sure to click on the link to enjoy the movement.    I find much diversity in the collaborative works that flow through @shortcut.  @shortcut's posts are made in both English and German.


Also "Wisdom of the Ancients - Part 2" by @shortcut


"Creation 1.0" by @robyneggs.  @robyn eggs actually made 10 images, all with their own interesting interpretation of the original image.  @robyneggs has a way of bringing multiple perspectives to this collaboration.


"EL ÁRBOL... Sabiduría de los Ancianos"  THE TREE...Wisdom of the Ancients by @soyjoseluis.  @soyjoseluis does his posts in Spanish, sharing our collaborative world with the Spanish speaking Steemit community--spreading the love far and wide.


"Cave" by @yadamaniart. Some really great detail here!!


"Wisdom of the Ancients" by @kalemandra  It's a GIF!  Click to see the full movement of this intriguing piece.


"Animal Guide" by @thedrollyears.  A surprising use of my image.


"A Mushroom Monday - King Oyster Feast" by @lightsplasher.  A mushroom harvest, recipe and artistic masterpiece all in one post.


"Wisdom of the Ancients" collaboration artwork & poem by @pyrowngs.   Jumping right in with two powerful pieces:

"Wisdom of the Ancients Collaboration #2" also by @pyrowngs


Four versions of "Wisdom of the Ancients" by @splus.  Working into intriguing transformative light.





and last but not least: 


Delve into and enjoy the sound of "Wood" by @lloyddavis while making your comments below.

I hope you have enjoyed our collaborative works as much as I have.

I love them all and I love most that all the artists took their time to not only read, comment on and upvote my invitation post, followed each other's posts, but then also took the initiative to make a piece of art and make a post about it.  That shows a great commitment to art in the midst of the bustle of life.  I am truly grateful to receive so many works of genius.

Please resteem to share the magnificence or our masterpieces, and expand our artists community.  
Invite your friends to join our next transformation.
