This art is in response to 
Hive account@brittandjosie's Christmas Ornaments Contest, which you can find HERE -- it runs through Dec. 24!
This first ball is jointly given to 
Hive account@juliakponsford and 
Hive account@alienarthive of the Alien Art Hive Community and NFT Showroom, along with 
Hive account@kalemandra and the Color Challenge Community! The Alien Eye Ball HAS IT ALL!
Hive account@juliakponsford is the Alien Overlord of the Alien Art Hive community, in which I found a first home as a fractal artist -- I actually encountered Hive account@kalemandra's fractal art there, and that led me to Color Challenge. So, I thought I'd put out one ball to gift them all ... the otherworldly eye with all the colors, and a big INVITATIONAL SHOUTOUT for both Alien Art Hive and Color Challenge to get involved with Hive account@brittandjosie's Hive Ball Initiative!
Hive account@juliakponsford is also the reason I am on NFTShowroom now as an artist, and, you'll find that the Alien Eye Ball's NFT analog is "The Pinkeye Marble,", available in one edition on NFT Showroom! It was more than a notion than to get that big, emanating thing -- steam tears and such -- into a ball, but it is available in its full form for you to view and purchase on NFT Showroom!
But, we're not done here -- my friend 
Hive account@wrestlingdesires is also a fractal artist, and this gift here, fittingly, is the Swirling Emotions Ball!
All that's best of dark and bright ... a soul working its way through a time of darkness, wrestling with its own desires, good and bad... hence this ball goes to you, Hive account@wrestlingdesires, a personal invitation ball to get on on the Hive Ball Action!
Both of these invitational balls were made using Hive account@brittandjosie's form ball, which you'll find on the contest main page --
Both figures were originally made in Apophysis 2.09 -- the Pinkeye Marble is a little older and was square in total (the problems with square pegs in round holes) -- and, the swirling emotions fractal just wasn't perfectly round, so that had to be wrestled into place on a dark background so that the golds, oranges, and reds would pop on out as they swirled!
It's November 28 -- you have until December 24 to get involved, and I'm inviting ALL OF YOU to spread the Hive Ball joy!
