Something simple and playful today instead of my usual dark and dramatic that I wanted to share. The theme is that of a young girl whose has made friends with the most unusual bird.
They each set out to discover where they came from and who they belonged to. Not knowing where to start, they both closed their eyes and pointed in a direction. As good as any, they thought. Laughing they walked side-by-side.
Along the way, they encountered awesome sights and sounds they'd never seen. Some provided them clues to their home.
Could it be they are fictional characters; magical beings who have fallen from a storybook? Seems plausible.
I hope they find someone who can assist them in returning home.
For my current mixed media art project, I discovered a lovely photo of a girl and a bird. The connection looks genuine. I can see the closeness suggesting they have befriended each other. The girl's eyes are closed. This suggests she's perhaps dreaming of another time or place.
With one of my recent pure fractal designs, I was able to bring the storybook to life and create a magical background for the girl and bird. I loved the swirls and shapes. However, the red color was a bit bold. I desired a more demure background. All was required was to colorize the fractal.
Below are the two additional pure fractals I included to extract the magical qualities from the scene. The house was a lovely find with a sort of schoolhouse vibe. It resembles a house one would see in a fairy tale. Removing the background enabled me to position the house next to the bird.

I then utilized Canva , my design program, to blend the images. I leave with you my procedures which begin with a blank, white canvas. I then add layers of elements in accordance with my upgraded Annual Pro Membership that includes tools to remove backgrounds, resize, filter, duplicate, and reposition items as required.

STOPor to resume write a wordSTARTThanks so much for stopping by and your manual curation of my mixed media part project. I appreciate it and your support.
Nicely done, it balanced out nicely! I do like the bird you used and the color of the house weren't too strong like the red would been. Great job putting that together, you're good at these!
Thanks so much for your kind compliment. I design collages daily, then place them in drafts. Days, weeks, or months later, I'll design another fractal or see another free-sourced image I feel fits better in the scene and switch out. It's a constant trial and error.
I appreciate your visit and engagement. Thanks for your support as always. Take care.

It's interesting as you combine the abstract element to transform it in something phisical, great job!!!
