A brief pause before we begin....

ATTENTION!!!!  
REMINDER OF POTENTIAL EXHIBITION OPPORTUNITY for CAJ COLLABORATORS
Last year at Steemfest2, Artists from Steemit exhibited their works at the ArtAtSteemfest Gallery, and the CAJ shared this video of our Journey together.  Of course there is no guarantee this will happen again, but,  just in case a grand opportunity should arise in some form or fashion (maybe at SteemFest3 which has just been announced to be in Krakow, Poland November 7-11, 2018!), this is your opportunity to submit your work for possible inclusion.  If you want your COLLABORATIVE ART JOURNEY work to potentially be featured  then you must make your submission by filling out this simple form.  By making your submission via the form link, you will be automatically entering your art and giving us permission to exhibit (or otherwise) use your artwork, as well as providing all the particulars necessary to give you credit for your contribution.  If you do not enter via the form, your work will be excluded from any such opportunity.

PLEASE ALSO TAKE A MOMENT TO GIVE SOME SUPPORT
TO OUR CHILDREN AND THEIR ART:
- View the FINALE of Gallery No. 12 of Artists In Bloom
- Get prepared to make a child's submission to our pending, but upcoming Gallery No. 13!
And now......what you've all come here for....

PRESENTING:
Collaboration Finale No. 37

~**~**~    " BEYOND THE SURFACE "    ~**~**~

Here is my original INVITATION to join this collaboration

This is another photograph I took of a billboard tarp that was melted in a fire.  You can see the layers of char around the top, and the layers and stringy edges as it melted unevenly with the heat.

Here are the transformations:

20 different variations and layers with @havok777 - here I include seven of them!!

2 versions with @angel50

"Emerging Fly" with @paomrp

Art Trip in Collaboration with @yizus

The Depth of the Sea with @airam05

Volcano Beyond the Surface with @indimar

Collaboration with @mariabarreto

Beyond the Planet's Surface with @lisangel

Collaboration with @luisveco88

Collaboration with @merej99

What I see beyond the surface

When I saw @everlove's piece I immediately saw a butterfly; to me it symbolizes hope.
Then I saw snowcapped mountains and swirling back holes.
My own life journey often feels like a steep climb.
And I give in to the journey, letting it take me where it will.
I know that I am protected by a higher being.
Sometimes I call it karma, the Force, God, energy.
I know my path and it will eventually lead me to death.
There is no escape from my mortality.
But my path is to live a good life
I will leave it knowing I did the best I could.
And that is enough.

Massive Metamorphosis with @jlufer

2 Collaborations with @luisrigual

Collaboration with @douglasbig

"Intertwined Thoughts" with @opiman 

CAJ and Zen with @pyrowngs

Power Elites with @l2rigual

Original Poem with @verbal-d

Beneath the layers
We're all truly connected
By a divine light...

We are linked more than we allow ourselves to be,
because the spiritual connectivity has existed since before we,
ourselves, came into existence in this life by the one
and true living God, Heavenly Father...

Collaboration with @rigual

Collaboration with @girlbeforemirror
