NFT animated crossfade between these variations at https://www.hicetnunc.xyz/objkt/70033

Perhaps folk art-like stylized binary star and background stars, in 8 color variants. This animation slowly crossfades aesthetic pairs. Created in ArtRage, composited and with color variations made in Photoshop. Watercolor and batik-like effects via Filter Forge. Variants are original fire-colored stars, sepia/chocolatey, oceanic (deep blue), gray light on dark and dark on light, dark rose, medium vibrant rose, and light dirty green.

This strikes me as something like a petroglyph, though with other creative elements, so I'm calling it hybrid faux rock art. I'm totally open to describing it in any other ways you can convince me to.

It could have specific influence in its origin, or not; maybe only my unconscious knows.

The black / line art was created via ZenBrush, and refined in Tayasui Sketches. The colurful painterly stuff was done in ArtRage. Compositing, recoloring, and color varigation via painterly circles for alpha on effect layers was done in Photoshop. The painterly circles of the alphas (for effect layers) were done via the image bomber and other techniques given in my previous post.

There's not necessarily anything representational going on, though on the left you may note some sort of figures or beings. Who do you think they are? What do you see, representational or not?

This is output from an image bomber I coded in Processing, worked up in some impressionist and book illustrative-style presets in Dynamic Auto-Painter Pro (a program that tries to make painterly images from any source image). I then did some layering trickery in Photoshop to blend the styles. The sources for the image bomber were circles in 24 shades of gray aligned to human perception of light to dark (white to black), with some random sizing, squishing, stretching and rotating (which is what the image bomber does)

The purpose of images like this, for me, besides being cool by themselves, is to use them as transparency (alpha) layers for either effect or image layers in image editing programs. For alphas, white areas are opaque and black areas show through.

This is my original work and I dedicate it to the Public Domain. Original image size (see syndication source, or if you're looking at the syndication source, click the thumbnail for the full image) : 3200 x 2392

Folk art-style decorative doodle done with virtual oriental brush , composited and with color fills and variations of color fills done in photoshop. I thought that saved in the file all the snapshots I made in the history of so many different L*a*b hue/saturation/lightness adjustment variation layers toggled off and on. Nope. So those master settings are gone, but :shrug: I have the rasters at high resolution. Also here: a crossfade of many colors between variations.
