14. "Aurora Hill" by MarcelloArt (@A_Magic_Forest)

Aurora Hill is a beautiful example of an imaginative AI landscape. I wish I could transport myself directly into this scene and just live there for years.

13. "AF+" by Meta is Dope (@metaisdope)

AF+ is a striking digital collage by Meta is Dope. It was an open edition, that I apparently missed. Boo.

12. "The Queen" by Ybelion (@ybelionCC)

I am in love with Ybellion's digital painting in a watercolor style. The details are excellent, and the cat's gaze is so hilariously intense. I wish I had collected this 1 of 1 Tezos NFT before it was snatched away from me. 

The Queen by Ybelion

11. "AiA #04" by Saeed Shooshtari (@Saeedshooshtari)

There is something so compelling about this AI NFT on Tezos. I feel myself drawn into the gaze of this woman.

8. "Dopamine" by Anna van Tassell (@annabambambaby)

This excellently odd piece comes with a poem by Anna van Tassell: "In a labyrinth of cells, Your song guides, Like a secret composer, That in us resides. For both body and mind, You are the chain, That links our mind’s notes, In a harmonious strain. While the sweet sonnet, Of your chemical serenade, Plays us the tune, Of how happiness is made. " All credit to Anna Van Tassell

Dopamine by Annavan Tassell

7. "Frozen Wonderland" by Adriano Chiaretta (@adri72)

If you ever wondered what would have been created if Van Gogh had access to LSD, now you know. 

Frozen Wonderland by Adriano Chairetta

6. "Sharing the Silence" by Hakan Biyiklioglu (@h_biyiklioglu)

"Sharing the Silence" is a wonderfully contemplative piece of art.  My only regret is that I hadn't fallen a few weeks behind on these Community Showcases so that I could have collected an edition before it sold out.

5. "Maral 6" by Pantea (@KhosraviPantea)

"Maral 6" creates a compelling visual story. The viewer is forced to consider where the woman at the center is heading, and why she is choosing to make such a trek. 

Maral 6 by Pantea

4. "Poppy" by Mehmet Karaca (@mehmetkrc85)

Mehmet used a low angle and a flat landscape to give this long little poppy a powerful sense of agency and importance.

3. "Journey" by Vlad (@vladsimages)

I love this collage by Vlad. It's a gorgeous landscape scene, an intriguing sci-fi story, and a nostalgic throwback to the heyday of Instagram travel influencers circa 2012.

Journey by Vlad

2. "Misty Afternoon" by Yoghi Juliansa (@Yoghijuliansa_)

Yoghi beautifully captures the joy of walking in the fog in this ultra crisp photograph.

1. "Peace" by Sonyaart (@sonyaillust)

"Peace" by Sonyart is sweet and purrfect. It makes me keenly miss my dear cat, Athena as I reminisce about those sweet, loving cuddles.
