Hello everyone. I'm back again to share with you another project for "Talent Tuesdays".
FREE COMPLIMENTS COMMUNITY - TALENT TUESDAYS
What's "Talent Tuesdays"? As explained previously, the FreeCompliments Community tells us it's one of their new themed days in the Community that provides a chance to post any of your talents: drawing, singing, sewing, writing (stories, poetry), or anything else that you do! Just make sure to title the post with “Talent Tuesdays” in the title. If you'd like to join in, visit: Talent Tuesdays & Taco Tuesdays on the FreeCompliments Community!.
My current project for Talent Tuesdays consists of a mixed media art design that reminds me of serenity of the mind and body. If I'm surrounded by comforting individuals, pleasant thoughts, and positive energy, I can focus on issues at hand that need my attention. I wake in the mornings to start my day with a cup of black breakfast blend coffee served in my favorite, simple black colored coffee mug.
I find my space I carved out for my solitude. There I relax and be at peace.
Simplicity is now my new norm.
Creating my mixed media art project is not as easy as one may think. Pulling the right combination of images is key. It takes time planning and pairing different art types to see how they blend well. Often I start with an image type in mind, then discover it doesn't work well for my theme. I spent hours scouring mixed media to locate appropriate content.
Often times short stories develop for my themes. With this project, my mind was in a bit of a turmoil, so a story couldn't form that I felt would do the project justice.
Images in my project include pure fractals created and rendered in the advanced fractal rendering program, Apophysis 7X. The generative art piece I produced in Nvidia Gaugan of a dark landscape, further filtered utilizing Deep Dream Generator. The final image of a female in a dark fantasy setting I located at a free-sourced site.

In order to finalize my mixed media art project, I utilized Canva and uploaded the images to blend the different types. Below are my steps in which I began with a blank, white canvas, then added layers of elements, duplicating, resizing, repositioning, removing backgrounds, and shadowing, items as needed.
To a blank, white canvas, I added the female image.
Duplicated the female image to cover the skyline. Added the landscape generative art image.
Positioned in a layer behind as the background.
Added my pure fractals and positioned them over the scene.
Added the pure circle fractal. Resized and positioned it. Completed project.
Thanks for taking the time to view my post. I hope you like my mixed media art project.
