I just took part in the 10-day SPARK10 Art from Writing: Writing from Art project!

What is SPARK?

An visual artist is paired with a word artist. The visual artist sends artwork to the word artist and vice-versa. 10 days ago I sent an artist a poem and she sent me a piece of art. Today I posted my response to her piece. She will eventually post the response to my poem!

Here's a link to: MY SPARK RESPONSE PIECE

I will post a link once the artist uploads her response piece. (-;

Here's a link to: ALL THE SPARK WORKS

Keep in mind that this is an ONGOING PROJECT. Here is their homepage:

SPARK

SPARK Rounds take place in February, May, August, and October. If you’d like to join the Spark fun, there is a contact email address at the homepage I linked to.

Here's the second half of our collaboration. I submitted a poem and the artist responded to it with a new piece of artwork:

AW. A very nice place!

... actually sounds neat, much as it pains me to admit such. A little less so now that I've gone back and changed the font to a barely legible color.

Love the "pinking universe." And I think the artist did a great job, from the pink ripples in the "warm canal" to the organic-looking growths from their center. Molecular level organic growth, seems to me, which gives a micro-aspect to a macro-concept.

I'll have to look into Spark.

Actually, when I first glanced at the thread title, I thought it said SPANKED.
