Hello everyone, here is my illustration for @Slothicorn's Genesis Contest!
You can read all about Mrs Slothy Sanders and her story in the post. It's a very interesting concept and I thought I'd like to give it a try. I choose to illustrate the first part of this story below where Slothy is fertilizing her strange plant with thick black liquid from her dream collection box. Slothy is looking a bit tired in the morning as she continues her daily life.
SLOTHICORN GENESIS STORY
This story is provided in the contest post.
Every day after work, Slothy is mentally exhausted.
Because she sells her dream energy to Fallhole, her own dreams have mostly vanished. At home, she has her own dream collection box but it is not filled with dream sequences any more. During her work week, Monday-Friday, her dream collection box at home is filled only with thick black liquid which she has to empty out each morning before work. She uses the black liquid to fertilize the strange plants which grow in her backyard.
On the weekends she will sometimes find a few random objects in her dream collection box floating in the black liquid. Last weekend she found a handskin glove stained with light green and purple spots, an ink pen that was leaking blood and a very small pink pom-pom from a fallen Truffula tree. Slothy usually picks out these objects, washes them, and saves them in a large container in the basement.

Wow amazing work and also in reporting with the steps GIF! Very inspiring! Thank you for your wonderful sharing!
Thank you for your kind word! There are too many steps to share by pictures so gif is a good way to see the steps ^^
Yes indeed it is a good idea, I am using an old software to create animated GIFS, would you share the name of the editor you are using? Thanks in advance! =)
I mostly use Photoshop timeline features to create the GIFs but sometimes I use free gif maker online to combine my pictures. One I always use is gifmaker.me
Hope it helps :D
