We have just completed our thirteenth collaborative finale post on the Steemian Artist's Collaborative Journey. Through thirteen sessions we have awakened our day with altered images, poetry, videos, gifs books and sound, each round inspired by one single image. Thirteen times we have come together to combine our energies in creative, expansive, productive play. We come from all walks of life, we engage many mediums of expression, we speak different languages, and live all over the world, yet we share the profound joys of igniting, uniting and supporting one another through our common passion for art.

Our works are being shared by all the artist, some of these creations are even shared in Spanish and German as well as English, and we are making our collaborative offerings available in our new art collaboration chat room to encourage others to join in. The chat room is also hosting collaborative opportunities from other Steemian artists. Check in often to see what possibilities await you.

I was inspired to do this Collaborative Art Journey in November with @opheliafu.
"Bird on a Wing" by @opheliafu - "BIRD ON A WING" COLLABORATION
She suggested I use the rewards from our posts to fund my trip to Steemfest. So create we did! I put out the call to more artists to join in, and though we had a slow beginning, the interest was great enough to feel worthy of my time and attention. Off to Steemfest I did go!! - with the help of some of my new (never met) artist friends, and others who weren't collaborating, but supporting my journey to get to Amsterdam. My trip was not heavily funded by our posts, but every little bit gave me hope and helped me on my quest.

Now, nearly three months later, our collaborative artist community is expanding and becoming more intriguing and rewarding. Nearly everyday I can open my Steemit blog and receive a masterful artistic gift of our combined creation.
We are all here together, supporting one another from our own little corners of the world,
AND...
Though most of us don't even know each other, we are connecting, learning each other's styles, melding our talents, sharing our passions, exchanging positively good feeling energy, upping our own abilities, showing gratitude and appreciation, inspiring others, earning rewards, surprising ourselves, giving each other gifts, building a really badass community within a community, getting and giving feedback, giving each other an audience to show our creations, activating a profound collection of Steemian Artist's Collaborative Works, bringing valuable content to Steemit, and enjoying every moment of our interactions everyday....and an added bonus -- this doesn't cost us anything, and we make little to no waste in the process. (Except of course electricity to run our computers).

Building a strong community has been one of my passions for almost a decade living at the @gardenofeden. Many of the same things I love about living in community, I also love about these art collaborations. Having the opportunity to share our gifts and talents through art is inspiring to me, and I am grateful to instigate such a powerful group of amazing beings to come together.
!!!**!!!**!!!**!!!**!!!
!!!**!!!**!!!**!!!**!!!
The loving energy that has been infused by each individual artist is inspiring, and creating valuable content for the Steemit platform. Though most of our posts have yet to be greatly rewarded financially, our collaborative efforts are generating lots of other extremely tangible rewards. Perhaps the perfect situation will present itself to share our works far and wide.

"Art Inspired Poem 1.1" by @robyneggs - 'REJUVENATION" COLLABORATION
Portals open in the dark
A meager excuse for travel
But the journey is so enticing
Even with the scraping of gravelThe elucidated liquid being
Of surrealism capped
Is nothing like being alone
Inside a Winter's capJuice me, need me
Just leave me to be
A skinned horse on a cart
Trappings tied so loosely

It makes me so happy to see this post!
So grateful to contribute to your happiness, @opheliafu!! And I feel happy having you involved in it.
Fantastic to collaborate on these, it is a highlight for me when I see one and an idea pops into my head on what to do! Thank you!
It's a highlight for me to see your posted masterpiece!! What fun we are together @meesterboom!
Love seeing this. Great to get the community together.
Heads up though, looks like your code is off. There's an error about 1/3 in the post.
Thanks for the comment and the head's up. The post shows up fine for me, except for the link for @verbal-d's music, which I often have to play with a bit to get it to show properly. Are you still having the same issue? Anyone else?
Yeah, I think that's it. You're mising a > on the opening tag.
Hmmmm. I've compared the links, and even replaced them just in case, but they appear to be the same as the link I used for my finale post on that collaboration. Where do I put the > that you feel is missing? How great it is to have live help!!!
That's odd. When I paste it into here it comes up fine. Looks like someone who actually knows what they're doing will have to jump in :(
We have been through this before, @verbal-d and I. It seems to appear on some browsers, and eventually it loads and shows, but I haven't yet understood the delay. Hopefully this is the same scenario this time and it will correct itself!
YAY!!!! It just fixed itself!! Thanks for your input @catharcissism.
You are our Steemit Fairy!!!
Hehehehehe!! It takes one to know one. So glad to be doing it with you!!!
Yeah!!!!! Thanks for being a part of the magic @hilarski!
Great work facilitating such interesting collaborations @everlove!!
Thank you @voronoi!!! I grateful it's been so well received. Glad you're a part of it--you inspire me as well.
Thank you very much @everlove for this fantastic post!!
And thanks to the artists' community of steemit for donating his great creativity ; )
I'm glad you enjoyed the post. Isn't it incredibly terrific what we have done? I'm really amazed at how easily that all came together. So glad you're a part of it @soyjoseluis!
We're building a web of cool stuff and cool people, it's one of the only things really worth doing these days imho :)
I've got some slow write-y collaboration going on around renewal - I wrote https://steemit.com/blog/@lloyddavis/on-renewals-1485634081-312083 and @jedb came back with https://steemit.com/collaboration/@jedb/on-renewal - everyone's free to join in!
We are really connecting with some cool people. I love the renewal round you are doing. I think it would be great to add it to the collaborative art chatroom too.
Thank you so much for the invite :)
Will be our pleasure to have you join us!
Awww :)
