We’ve been sort of riding along on an experimental creative art journey for many posts now, and we’ve come to another point where we can look back and see where we’ve been on this, the third leg of the “Art Journey”.
The concept of the Art Journey involves creating a free-flowing creative “train of thought”, composed of individual images which combine together in sequence to form a long continuous image, which ultimately stretches over many posts. The individual images are in turn used as inspiration for written commentaries, often in the form of poetry. The intent of all this is to engage the viewer in a kind of creative voyage of the mind, and the combination of images and concepts in context is what I call “Intercontexting”.
In this leg of the Journey…
We sort of got “stuck in traffic” for a while (again), and had our moods messed with just a little bit…
What's going on back at the Stoplight???
…And then we got a glimpse of this odd contraption –
Moody Stoplight Blivet Thing
– Before hitting the road again on another stylistic detour…
Detouring in Style Again!
…Then we floated along with some dreamy fantasy images in a soft watercolor style:
Dream Suite
…Next, we encountered some images done in a bold, painterly expressionistic style:
An Expressionistic Passage
…And then we went through a passage of surreal fantasy images:
Just A Little Bit Surreal
…And we ended up back at the Moody Stoplight again!
Moody Traffic Jam!
Now let’s see all of the above images as one long continuous image – this is the Third leg of the Art Journey:
