It is very exciting when one creative project leads to the next and my theme today seems to be playing with photographs!
If you are not familiar with @everlove's Collaborative Art Journey calls to action, I highly recommend you add her to your follow list and check out her latest invitation:
INVITATION: Collaborative Art Journey..."Shadow Mandala" -- This is your invitation to Collaborate! Whatever your expression, BRING IT ON!
I am calling this:
Memories in Shadow
As I stared at @everlove's "Shadow Mandala" I was really at a loss with what I could do with it. Then this morning I posted submissions for the Steemit Photo Challenge -- so if a big part of this collaborative piece looks familiar - it should.
You can see my photos here
The third photo is "secretly" my favorite, and as @meesterboom so eloquently stated, because it is "perhaps the most poignant."
You see, this is the lake where we gathered to spend a wonderful weekend to spread my father's ashes. That's when I visualized this piece.
Here are the three photos that I worked from:
"Shadow Mandala" by @everlove
John Buley, my dad.
unknown lake in Vermont
I thought about adding more photos to have a collage effect but upon sitting back and looking at it, I said, "It is enough."
Come play with us!
The deadline to be included in @everlove's post featuring all participants is Wednesday, March 8 -- and in keeping with her guidelines, you are free to use my final image in your own collaborative piece.
