F.A. Moore
Oh my gosh! Now I see what you meant in your journal. So he could only see the bottom inch, to start from there. This is BRILLIANT, Helene!
helene ruiz replied
was such a great challenge, a i am now waiting for one he has started and will send to me for me to complete, most certainly a “mentally” stimulating artsy game! I play this all the time at home now! I love it! keeps the mind well excersized lol

It is clever work, and a great way to collab … this “exquisite corpse” would be most effective with “traditional” artists it would seem … oh well, will keep on eye on this recent direction of yours dear Helene …
helene ruiz replied
well actually i believe the forst one was done between writers if i am not mistaken, google it, so many ways to collaborate! defintiely brain excersize~ good for the creative soul~!!
helene ruiz replied
i believe when the writers collaborated they can only see the last line of words and had to add from there, there are so many ways to do this between similar mediums, such as collage, digital, photo manipulation, drawing, painting, sculpture, etc…see my new post in my journal
Crowmanic
Yes Helene (i did read it on net b4 writing, thanks) and am familiar with the process re writing though a group would do a lone, then someone another etc… similar I suppose… my comment was about “most effective” as in results re visual art… and yes “good for the creative soul” sweet Lady.
helene ruiz replied
yes i agree, styles and mediums are important factors in choosing the collab groups

Helene,I’m blown away,this is fantastic.
helene ruiz replied
thnx … read my newest post n my journal to see if u are interested in my proposal
Mary Ann Reilly
fabulous and so much fun. Writers were the original collaborators I thought in the Exquisite Corpse work in France:)
helene ruiz
yes, but the possibilites are endless, musicians can work together, one composes, then the other hear only the last few notes and continues, keeping it fairly short, every medium can work with this

Outstanding drawing, just a pleasure to look at.

full of youth, full of grace,- drawing?more perfect could noy behelene ruiz replied
it was truly great fun doing this piece…I saw Bernard Dumaine’s wrk here on RB and absolutely loved his skill…and I as a lover of The Exquisite Corpse game asked him if he would do one with me, and he agreed///we will actually be doing one more together, this one i started and covered all but almost an inch or so, then mailed to him and he completed the bottom half…i now rec’d one from him that he begun and coverd and i will complete, once i finish then i will uncover to see what came out of the collaboration..i will have to wait till next week tho for my half as i am soo busy with this show for friday, and Mariam Muradian is coming to stay me with as she is in the exhibit as well! she arrives tonight
madvlad

and,yes well done too-i wish that someone big in the arts=push= in the city sees your work and pushes it for you—amen-and you never are in need for loot again or best of all-art supplies walthelene ruiz replied
LOL…now thats funny, think it a dream tho…lololol…...i was born poor, live poor and will most likely die poor….ahhhh….such is life…lololol
madvlad
dreams are funy ruizee-but we can have them-
i too was born poor, but the bigwar made us rich-we were fishermen-and meat was hard to come by during the big war and we got rich, or pretty well off after the firstten years of soup every night-both my wife and me worked, so we gave the kids a good middle class life,and like you,ruizee my home looked like a art museum ,so the kids had a good place to bring pals, but now i am back to poor again-i just get by-but its okl my life was wonderful-like you- i was in a accedent too that beat me up pretty bad and i have 5 scares on my body to tell – was blessed not to be killed-i worked my ass off ruizee-all my life-and my one blessing was-june- my wife-so no i am not as bad off as you.last winter i almost came to an end ,but??god has me here a little longer?maybe? to learn more/about loss sadness and pain of heart-so? bless me n you love your moxie ruizee keep going on rich in your heart? if no where elsehelene ruiz replied
blessings to u mad

Stunning work!
RosaCobos
This too much!!!!
and you know what…
It is a perfect rendition of “The Devil”’s card.
Though with a face picture portraiture instead of the whole figure with the rest of companions.
It has the complete presence of the creativity without restraint and the shadowy part of our soul, not trying to convey beautiness but a perfect sense of “ugliness” in the most (paradoxically), beautiness’s sense of the word.
Complicated yes… ? hope not so.
Now… if you want to sendn yours to someone….what exact size in photoshop should you send it… I mean the whole of it.. thought I may do just the half.
In pixels….
Wonderful!!!

Would you like to submmit it to Tarot: Map of Consciouness
I would call it….(Devil’s Minding Time) If you do not have a description you can use my own words.. will you?
A hug!!
