Mushroom Fashionable | A Mixed Media Art Project

Adorned in an exquisite symmetrical lavender butterfly mink shoulder wrap with a mushroom and butterfly hat and hair accessories, this international model personifies grace as she's surrounded by a mushroom background.

Designed by Hive account@justclickindiva and contributed to the popular site to retrieve exotic images, Pixabay, the lavender wrap is worn high upon the neckline. The second piece to the wrap extended below the shoulder. It provides a modest cover for the bosom.

Gaze upon it. Then imagine the faint throbbing of underneath as the rhythmic beat caresses your mind. The wrap extension moves as she does, effortlessly as if issuing an invitation.

Try it on, she says. You'll be transformed.

In the stable diffusion program, StarryAI, I was playing around with a new Style Paradigm Shifter. We already understand that a paradigm is an example of a standard way, model or pattern for reaching a widely acceptable approach to how we view a particular item or set of items.

To shift the paradigm, we must trash what we know and then approach the problem or issue by heading in a completely different direction from what we've established as the normal outcome, thereby expecting and achieving a different result.

That's a paradigm shift. We're actually just altering or shifting our viewpoint. Below are my steps in achieving an image of a mushroom using the paradigm shifter:

StarryAI Text input:
"Standing vertical full picture one long stemmed light gray wide cup mushroom."

Style: PARADIGM SHIFTER

Quality: Fast
Seed: 2146948109
Image Strength: 50

Results:

With the mushroom background completed, I had already located a female image I desired for the modeling position. A demure young lady with her eyes closed fit perfectly with my theme.

As I stated above, the purple butterfly image I designed in Canva to serve as a modeling outfit. I also retrieved the basic butterfly image from StarryAI as a stable diffusion image.

In Canva, I layered the butterfly image and duplicated it. The result was amazing with the curved top. Perfect as a bodice. Paired with my pure fractal I utilize as a veil, the scene was transformed into an ethereal glow.

• To a blank canvas I added the stable diffusion image with two mushrooms; duplicated it so that two sets of mushrooms were on opposite sides of the screen as my background;

• Added the female. Removed background; then resized and positioned her in the center of the screen;

• Added the second mushroom image. Removed background, then duplicated and positioned each in her hair;

• Added butterfly image I designed and fitted it around the female's neck. It fit perfectly;

• Added the other butterfly image and placed it on the mushroom that sits on the right side of the screen;

• Added my pure fractal and stretched it to fit the screen on both sides, providing a veil that resembled the cosmos rushing toward the female.

All that was required was to remove the background of some of the images. Below are the images, together with the two butterfly diffusion images I included in my project:
