Karohemd's World

A while ago, I took part in an international art collaboration project orginally instigated by kylecassidy in which two people were randomly chosen to come up with something together.
My match was roguish_ink. As we were separated by various oceans and miles of countryside, we split it into two parts. I took a series of photos of random objects, shapes and textures around the house and sent them over. She then printed some of those photos, arranged them in a collage, traced the shapes she was interested in and used those as base of a painting

As if that wasn't cool enough, when City Kitties in Philly announced their annual art auction, roguish_ink asked me if I was OK with her donating the piece for the cause and of course I was.
The auction took place this weekend and the piece sold! :D

The art collaboration project lives on in the 2xcreative community.

especially belak_krin and pmoodie

motodraconis recently found an old and wonderfully illustrated book called The Public and Private Life of Animals. Click the link to her flickr set with a selection of photos of some of the pages (all the photos should be viewable large). Some of those could well have inspired Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. Very impressive.
