Had one similar to Len's techno, must have been on the same wave length at the time...  ;)

My turn to drop a short prompt, if anyone would like to try.  I'll just say Gill made me do it, (snicker).  Try as is or add any prefix you like, ie - altered states, HDR --ar 3:2

altered states

Have fun kids...  ;)

how's this: mother nature by wombo. flora v2 style. 

Mustn't Fool with Mother Nature...super job bakapo 

Legends

Listening to some Old School R&R earlier inspired these

Mick Jagger

Jimmi Hendrix

Eric Clapton

Robert Plant

Mark Knopfler

altered states... no change to that prompt. trippy, man

wow, Lenord, those portraits are really cool!

I think it was Darkglass did some Groot images a ways back, I made a mental note then to do some too but being mental took this long to get around to it.

I am Groot

Think it 

bakapo - A beautiful mother nature and a super trippy altered states, wellcome back!

Len - Rock star portraits seem perfect for that style, great idea and well done!

It was fun trying to recreate the B and W biker cafe with the girls and bikes.  Took a few tries but I think I came pretty close.  Another great idea from Lenord to find a snapshot of life that I wouldn't nornally see in my part of the world.  Maybe I'll retire to Texas or New Mexico eh...  ;)

Eric Clapton - Layla

And for those who've jumped to this new page, we are meditating to see what new altered states we might find...

altered states

Well it's been a hard day for me, thanks to the rain we had many of my paper and canvas artworks are toast.... so now that I've got most of the water vacuumed, some crying done and some hot tea, here is my tweak on wabi sabi to make it more my own. I honestly really like them.  

so sorry about the rain damage, Lunaseas. I like the images, the lighting is beautiful.

thanks, rhol, I take care of my 95 year old mom 24/7, so sometimes I just need to step back and stay off the internet when exhaustion strikes.  

Wonder Woman

so sorry about the rain damage, Lunaseas. I like the images, the lighting is beautiful.

Lunaseas - Also sad to hear about you losing some of your art.  Any lost valued momento's from our lives can hurt, canvas sometimes suvives, but paper not so much.  Glad your pc is still alive and you found some inspiration, your images are so nice, luv the light and colors...  :)

Bakapo - Thanks for sharing your wonderful art, I've been a fan for many years as you know, just happy when you post!  Family comes first of course, hugs to you for being there, we should all be so lucky to have that care!

Going with the flow...

Then the story went off on a film noir tangent...

Stevie Ray Vaughan - Life by the drop

Len....Great looking groot and images cool style...!

Bakapo... lovely mother nature great details...your a superstar for looking after your mother 24/7....family and friends always come first, 

Rhol...quality B&W creations....really nailed the realism in them biker babes...!

Lunaseas...super Wonder Woman art....particularly like the second image, very Lynda Carter 70s style...!

Altered states....

Altered states...with a tiny tweak...

bakapo:  your Mother Nature image is fantastic.   Taking care of yourself is part of taking care of others.  Remember that.

Lunaseas"  Your tweaked wabo sabit is so good.  Love the colors.  2nd wonder woman is awesome.

rhol: super Go With the Flow.  Very creative.

Darkglass:  Great altered states.  I tried this, but will have to try again as I didn't get much.

Lunaseas - sorry to hear you've lost some of your artwork and other things.  Heartbreaking

Great pix everyone.

I'm off to go with the flow in an altered state...

I'm a big fan of B/W ink and pencil line art as you can tell, I thought I'd switch it up and do B/W in Color. switched up the prompt added dripping Oils.

"go with the flow in an altered state" :)

and then a couple of  additions

Lou wanted me to do an image of her Kitten, told her it'd be my way... that went over like a Lead Balloon, so I made two versions my way her way. They actually look pretty close I mean at this age it is just a gray Furball.

My way

Her way

Then the story went off on a film noir tangent...

Stevie Ray Vaughan - Life by the drop

Len - Very cool stuff!  I thought the black and white images were photos for a minute.  I was going to ask you to introduce me to your friends, lol...  ;)

Ladylake - Luv'n those wabi sabi renders!

ACue - Always happy to see you stop by, Gotham looking good, the rain gives it a perfect atmosphere... :)

Gill - Taking us down a dark eldritch path and then running away to color land, ha ha ha.  Very nice moth closeup and flowing woof...

Darkglass - Slipstreaming at full speed as usual!

Bakapo - Hurry back, we miss you... :)

going with the flow in an altered state...

Into the Retro Style this is experimenting with Pen and Ink + Watercolor

Great posts everyone!  Guess the Wabi Sabi thing was a fun one hahaaa

Now gone in a completely different direction with....

And

Street urchin, factory worker, matchstick or flower girl, it doesn't matter, Little Maggie comes to life here, and asks meekly that we remember her. Dickens knew her. Saw her every day at the same street corner. What became of her is unknown.

Stable Diffusion. Hope you like it.

I find this rendering so very evocative, and brings to mind two head-strong and care-free sisters, dancing their way through not-so-high society at the turn of the century or perhaps students of the legendary Isadora Duncan. Stable Diffusion. Hope you like it.

@ Lunaseas thought I was the only one gettig something different with Altered States...nice work 

@ ACue thanks man I appreciate that

I don't know Can't get anything near Darlglass and Gill with Altered States, must be my twisted take on it...dunno

Well OK here's my Altered States for what their worth, course I twisted it all out of recognition from everybody elses, don't know.

@ ACue...Oils in the style of the Old Masters cool

The first one was quite simply "go with the flow in an altered state"

Second - "go with the flow in an altered state, magical, fantastical, octane render --ar 16:9 --s 500 "

Wabi sabi floral still life - gotta try that it's gorj !

OK it appears it was the watercolor line art that caused such a difference in Altered States
