Hi Aliens!

Hope you're all doing well out there.

Have you ever spent hours looking for the perfect image, only to realize that it doesn't work once you put it into your collage? That's pretty much what happened to me with this one.

I just finished this new piece, and I had a lot of fun experimenting with different elements. I wanted to create something magical, a little strange, and full of color. The single eye, butterfly wings, and flowers growing across the figure's body came together in a way I really liked. There's also two another head hidden somewhere else in the collage. See if you can spot it!

Finding the right assets was probably the most challenging part. I can spend hours searching for a single image that fits what I have in mind. Sometimes an asset looks perfect on its own, but once I put it into the composition, something feels off. I've had to rework certain elements several times before they finally felt right.

But that's also what makes the process so satisfying. When all those separate pieces finally come together, it's such a relief. Sometimes the final result even turns out a little different from what I originally imagined, and I end up liking it even more.



I've included all the images I used in creating this artwork below.
