### After having a ton of fun creating a piece for Whisper GALLERY II, an initiative by @mrblinddraw, I was able to claim a spot in Whisper GALLERY III as well! If you didn't see my work for Whisper GALLERY II click and read about my mixed-media artpiece made from scans of ink works and cut-outs from photos I made in the past.
Whisper GALLERY II
Now, Whisper GALLERY II ended with this very satisfying piece made by @errymil - I really thought it was perfect, since I could recognize almost all the contributions of the previous weeks in the artwork. Read the description about the artwork if you want to learn more.

Whisper GALLERY III
Whisper GALLERY III then started with the first artwork based on that seed, and the coolest thing is this has been made by the initiator of the Whisper project, the amazing @mrblinddraw. He went crazy with acrylic paint, gouache and watercolour and made use of a lot of white space.

My first thoughts
FUN WITH GEOMETRY
The first thing I thought is YAY it has a lot of patterns and geometric shapes in it! If I could I would be a fabric designer and just think about colours and shapes and pattern all day every day.
FUN WITH THE ARCHIVES
The second thing I thought is: this will be a great way to look at my photo archives: what geometric patterns can I find in pictures I have taken in the past? How many abstracts and geometric shapes will I be able to collect from there?
THE PIANO!
Lastly I was positively surprised how 'strong' one part of the Whisper was: the piano keys drawn by @manouche are in fact still visible after many iterations from different artists, and since I had a very strong visual from one of my pictures it might come back this round!

It seems to be still relevant in GALLERY III. Will I re-use it one more time, and as a bonus create some consistency in those two mixed-media artworks? We'll see.]
Steps to take this week
I'll have to finish my piece before next Monday and my hands and brain (!) are itching because I already think I know which direction this work will go. I will start with going through 13 years of photo archives and collect a few that have some strong geometrical or textured parts in it.
After that I will see if some of my ink prints will be added to this piece as well.
Then I will scan whatever is necessary and start ordering, cutting and shaping in Photoshop.
I'm looking forward guys! Until I present you my artwork, please go to the profile of @mrblinddraw and give him and his project some love!
