New Art - Untitled Lambs and some rambles about social media

I have been posting less the last two weeks as I decided to give myself a quasi vacation which I don't do often. I was still 'working' but decided to take somewhat a break from social media. Now that I am declaring my vacation over and coming back it feels very strange, I feel totally out of the loop on what's going on and everything feels so fast paced! I've missed all the drama and happenings and new token drops and projects 😂

Feel free to fill me in on any tea!

I have still been making some art and as mentioned in my previous post I have been working on crocheting my first ever sweater. It started as a cardigan idea but I decided I didn't want to fuss with buttons or any type of fastening technique. I think it is coming along well :) I was always intimidated by crocheting garments but once I looked up a bunch of patterns I realized it's not actually as difficult as I thought, it is however time consuming. I am hoping to finish soon and will make a post in the needlework community when I do.

On to the art, this one is currently Untitled...

In retrospect I like to think of this artwork as me attempting some peace from the SoMe shitshow, ha!

To create this artwork I generated tons of images of women holding a lamb using Leonardo AI, I tried their style feature for the first time and used the digital paint feature. It wasn't quite as I expected but after tweaking a lot of parameters I came up with a group of images I liked.

I chose two of the images and collaged them together then added some various layers of glitching and masking to get this wavy flowy style around the edges. I really lke this effect and want to play with it more:
