Whisper Gallery III - Week I with @mrblinddraw! Next week is @soyrosa!
This is week I of #Whisper! If any of you know of the game Telephone, this is a take on that. The beauty of Whisper is that it has no winners, and the excitement of it comes from the creative interpretations.
Steemians, welcome to Whisper Gallery III!
Whisper Gallery III, Week I: Featured Artist is @mrblinddraw!
Thanks to the piece by @errymil and everyone in the sequence, we're at this place. I am contributing my first whisper gallery post to start of Whisper Gallery III!
I was inspired by the negative space in @errymil's post. That piece made me think of the sun, radiating art through bob marley, through music in general. I took that and tried to radiate art. That with some vague references to music in the pieces.
This was done entirely on acrylic, gouache, and watercolor.

What is Whisper?
A chain of artistic creations that are each initiated by a seed idea/art piece (one piece of artwork inspires the next piece, and so on). Each week we will have a featured artist who will create a piece that is inspired by the piece from the week before.
The beauty of this trail is seeing this creative interpretation and reinvention take place on a high level.
Helping Build an Art Community
We want to collectively build an art community. This is a great way to connect us, support each other through up-votes, comments, and follows. Steemit can be a slow-growing platform for creatives starting out, and the future goal is to roll this into a community event where people can be perpetually submitting to the chain.
With Whisper Gallery I now behind us, I have found so much gratification in the ability to bring more eyes to artists as well as create a showcase beyond the contest level. Art is often abstract to people, and I think when we're able to tell a collective story in our own styles, it begins to unravel that mystery for some. If our goal is to make more art, more appreciators of art, more supporters of the art community, and more people happy in general, I think we've succeeded. More to come!
Steemians, I encourage everyone to re-steem this post to gain more eyes on the project and allow the artists to get more rewards for their high-quality work. Every comment, upvote, resteem, and follow helps!
Support
Thanks to several community members for the support. I greatly respect and appreciate @sndbox for allowing this to be pushed forward and succeed in the way it did.

Its a great pleasure to be a part of this amazing proyect, Can't wait to see what's up next week.
Wh00p! So much fun to work together and I can 'react' on your work @mrblinddraw! One of the most fun projects on the Steem Blockchain to participate in :-)
Gooooooood luck! @soyrosa
It's wonderful to see you participate! I'm sure the third edition is going to be amazing. Can't wait to see what's in store.
@manouche, thank you again and always for your positivity and support. :D
Seems like a really cool project. Have you thought of adding writers to the mix? I've seen that done before too. Show a completed art piece and have writers compile an inspired poem--or vice versa :)
Hi @kimberlylane, perhaps next gallery. Would you like to do a poem about the gallery III when it's complete?
Oh, just noticed an e-mail that i'm in :) Thank you.
It's my first time doing something in collaboration, looking forward to @soyrosa piece
