ARE WE ALLOWED TO HAVE THIS MUCH FUN?

It started with a cloudscape shot in the afternoon before an imminent storm (which started on Friday and is still going on)
John Mora gave me a little color to work with


I like the five ray configuration. tweaked it with curves to bring back the blue

I love checking in to see what you two will be up to next. Very inspiring, Sue! I love the House on Fire most, though they are all gorgeous. The energy that comes with this collaboration is incredible.

Your ability to create healing light and color images is truly magnificent.

In answer to your question, YES! Please have much more fun so I can look in and see it!

Sue, they are lovely - joyous what you did to my mousy doodles.

Glad you referencd and possibly incorporated Lisa's sunflowers.

I think all are beautiful and magically delicious( yes, charmed luckily).

I love House of Clouds and the way you echoed the background is perfect. I like how it has a painterly quality. BTW, you chose the one of John's set that I liked the best too.

Lisa's sunflowers are making the rounds and no telling what they might turn into next :)

Seeing this collaboration gets me all excited. Now I wonder what would happen to a round robin.

Came back, they are really beautiful and something I could never do...thank you, Sue. A great experiment and experience.

You have breathed life into clouds. Very impressive.

Yes...it's all about fun and you two are out of control. What can I say I'm in awe of these collaborations.

Your.on.fire.!

out of control??? i think we've only just begun!

Collaboration adds up to more than 1 and 1 makes 2. So together you add up to a lot. I do hope though, Sue, that you don't forsake your regular mandalas, as I have come to love them so. And let's not forget your doodles!

Your collaboration work is outstanding! I especially like Sunflower Fire.

Kris, I knew you would like House on Fire, given your penchant for all that red stuff. And who can't use a little heat this time of year? I appreciate your comment about creating healing light and color. It is definitely my intent.
John, let's do it again.
Bobbie, I am intrigued by the idea of a round robin too.
AE, thanks for stopping by. Im looking forward to knowing more about your art.
Irene, I have been posting my doodles on flickr. I will post some more soon. Promise.
Fannie, thanks for stopping by
