In the garden to the left of Adena, the ground shook beneath Antinella's bare feet. She breathed deeply. Surrounded by her favorite colors, aqua, tangerine emerald, sage, and yellow, she wept. They did nothing to ease the torment of her capture and confinement. The finest wines. The eloquent wardrobe. The exquisite jewels. All meant nothing as she longed for her lover to rescue her from bondage.
Her flaxen hair, left unattended, grew to lengths that defied recognition. Her master's wish that she encase her strands in a rope-like skin that resembled a reptile both angered and repulsed her.
Animals unfamiliar to her placed in the garden to protect her from harm, ridiculed her for the ungrateful attitude. To have captured the master's favor was the greatest accomplishment any human could attain.
Still, she longed to escape this place of beauty for the hardship of human life.
Her lover's displeasure at her frequent indecision was nothing compared to her master's revenge should she disobey him. Upon approaching, she'd vacillate, then cling to him and beg his forgiveness.
Of course, she desired to leave. Her desire consumed her daily imagining what it would feel like to once again step outside his world and experience life as a human.
She got her chance the her master left her alone to thwart a takeover.
They fled with abandon, never minding the master had set his hounds from hell upon them. That they reached the edge of doom was a miracle. Immediately, they were snatched from the fires.
As Antinella glanced backward, her master fury followed her gaze. She knew he'd dispatch his disciples cloaked as mere humans to fetch what was his for eternity.
My approach to this current project was to create an atmosphere of fantasy and horror in a garden setting. The setting would contain an alluring female that appears alien in nature. Her surroundings are strange with unusual animals.
To accomplish this, the female I envisioned standing in a strange setting I retrieved from the stable diffusion program, StarryAI. I love the lush gardens in the scene. And the hair extensions are ethereal where they turn into a snake-like image. I love that the female's hands are outstretched.
Below are my steps:
StarryAI Text input:
"Eve in thee Garden of Evil elegantly dressed full body beautiful flowing hair beckoning to the snake."
Style: Fantasy
Iterations: 50
Seed: 2461413594"*
StarryAI Result:
Also, I wanted to showcase several of my pure fractals I created using Apophysis 7X, the advanced fractal rendering program. The fractals were intended to create an aura around the female. This gave me an idea to use my fractals to construct a curtain as though with her outstretched hands, she is opening herself and her surroundings up for the world to see.
To create the appearance of a strange garden that contains unique animals, I located several images I felt would enhance the scene.

Black panther ~ Owl ~ Elephant turtle
To complete my project, I love working with Canva to blend the images. I'm able to take advantage of the tools and features afforded me in my upgraded Annual Pro Membership Subscription. Below are my procedures:
To a blank, white canvas I added my pure blue fractal titled "Seventh Sphere".
Duplicated the blue fractal to fill the entire canvas as the background.
Added the stable diffusion female image.
Resized female image, then duplicated it to fill the bottom portion of screne as the garden bed.
Added the pure fractal titled "Gypsy". Duplicated it over several areas in the scene to create a curtain as though the female is opening it.
Added the owl, alien turtle, panther, and my fractal.
Removed backgrounds of two images. Repositioned all 4 images in various places in the scene. Completed the project.
