The Morning Dawned Cloudy | A Mixed Media Art Project for Cosmic Creations - Inspired By Nature No. 1

Excited by the Cosmic Creations No. 8 Contest theme "Inspired by Nature," I completed and submitted my entry. What I want to do here is share with you another mixed media art project related to the theme.

In this "Inspired By Nature" Theme No. 1, wanted to depict a light and airy scene of a morning that began cloudy, but inspired great works of art. My project showcases a few of my stable diffusion images created with the stable diffusion program, StarryAI, together with one of my pure fractal. The images are all part of a gallery of abstract art on display.

To begin, I included my pure fractal entitled "Perfect Bow" as the star of the project. Resembling a beautiful flower, the colors are bright and vibrant. It could also double for a butterfly. I added this fractal to the front of the drawing tools sitting on the table.

Next, I used the stable diffusion program, StarryAI, to produce the diffusion images. I wanted a male this time in my design since I use predominantly females. The eye I love to portray in the diffusion image because the results are alien and dramatic. With a single description, I received four amazing eyes. I present three in this project.

Below are my procedures for producing the stable diffusion images:

To complete the images I wanted to include in my project, I needed some canvases. I located two images I felt would suffice, one tall. I found the perfect photo frame and easel. One final image was a lone flower to represent the nature landscape.

To blend the assortment of images, I uploaded all into Canva. Below are my procedures:

Started with blank, white canvas.

Added tall photo frame.

Duplicated tall photo frame and repositioned all to fill the canvas. Lovely skyline. Adding other photos will look larger.

Added image for easel with set of photos and table with paint tools.

Removed background of easel photo. Looks nice and blends well with tall frame.

Added the flower image.

Removed flower image background and repositioned it between the frame and stool.

Added the three stable diffusion eye images to all the frames.

Positioned all three eye images. To the tall frame, I added one of the eye images in triangle shapes.

Added the male stable diffusion image.

To the frame, added the male stable diffusion image in triangle shapes and mixed it with the eye diffusion image.

Added orange fractal flower; repositioned it, and completed project.

Below is my completed project:

Thanks for taking the time to view my post. I hope you like my mixed media art project for the Inspired By Nature theme No. 1.
