In a land and time misunderstood, being among the familiar is crucial for their survival. They may not resemble us humans. They may not act and process information the way we humans have evolved. And they may not socialize in the same manner we do. However, they survive by adhering to a common goal.
Oneness in our uniqueness.
For they would prefer to dwell among themselves and exist as kings and queens of their castles for time eternity than be classified and unworthy, overlooked for their diversity, and ridiculed for aspects of their being that's not in their control.
I understand completely.
Returning to a much simpler way of life than the hustle and bustle of a society one doesn't fit in or completely assimilate into.
As the famous Transcendentalist stated,
Henry David Thoreau Source
There, I believe, one can be herself no matter what that self may consist of.

For my current mixed media art project, I wanted to convey the feeling of individuality as it pertains to the a person's surroundings. I called upon again StarryAI to provide images to suggest this. Adding one of my pure fractal I created in the advanced fractal rendering program, Apophysis 7X provided the feathery portal look once I duplicated and inverted it.
The fractal's variety of peach colors created a soft palette that gives one the feeling of a quite remembrance. Rendering the fractal on a black background enabled the fine details to shine through.

Below are my steps:

Text input:
"Eyeballs only in a horrifying obsidian form the things that fantasy is made of.."
Style: Twisted Whimsy

Text Input:
"Gigantic toad with huge bulging eyes smoking a cigar while resting in a recliner and drinking a beer somewhere upon a mountain in the galaxy."
Style: Fantasy
Result:


I utilized Canva to blend the different type images, adding layers of elements in accordance with my upgraded Annual Pro Membership that includes tools to remove backgrounds, resize, filter, duplicate, and reposition items as required. Perhaps of all the tools, the ability to remove backgrounds thereby creating transparencies of the images is crucial to the blending process.
Once I finalized the still version, I took the design to Photo Mosh filter to create the vintage look of the portal.

I share with you my completed project:

What a beautiful phrase about the pumpkin and the velvet cushion, it is so true, and what a beautiful design with so much colour, especially autumnal, referring to unity and home. I also really liked the theme of memories. Thank you for this design!🤗
