Group message. Thank you to everyone who sent your very inspiring art for the surrealism competition (you all received likes from me), inspired by works of the classics of the genre. A very close challenge indeed, congratulations to the winner Electra @SalvadorDoolalli (a surrealist by name), second place Suz @SuzJon and third place The_Eagle @The_Eagle. I look forward to seeing your art in the next round of the challenge that develops our fantasy vision of the world. Happy New Year!!

Thank you. It was probably a line from a book that struck me, though I can’t remember now.

Wow, this one turned out quite different! Love the hat 😄 

Thanks-I think it is so weird because I used a start image.  I like doing that sometimes.  I did hit the create button a bunch of other times without a start image and never did get one as good as yours.

This is really harder than it looks, getting something interesting in each “zone.”

True - this was a very lucky result.

For me by far the best of many many tries.
