Over 425 Masterpieces have already been created
by 87 Steemian Artists on the
Collaborative Art Journey.

What began as a simple two person collaboration (@opheliafu and me),
has turned into an incredible gallery of works from artists of many genres--
poetry, story-telling, videos (@mariandavp), song writing, gifs, photography, drawing, painting, and digital art!

Some of our posts have been shared in Spanish (@soyjoseluis), products have been designed (@shortcut), faces have been painted (@reneenouveau), and even a 12-year old has participated @giraffeonskates).

We have the opportunity to share our incredible repertoire at Steemfest in Lisbon
in some miraculous way, which will allow others to tune into the amazing
art we have created together.
If you have any creative suggestions on how we can optimally share our art,
I would be delighted to hear about it.  
Send me a message on SteemitChat or in a comment below!

PLAYING THIS GAME WITH YOU IS A PRICELESS BLESSING!
With every comment, post, upvote and resteem, our artists' community grows stronger.
We have created a very family feel that supports and upgrades our artistic abilities and our lives in general.  

Ohhhhhh--what fun it is be on this journey with you!
