Pretty Abstract Thingie Lacking a Title

[kerravonsen]

Fluid art, decorative clip-art, filters, highlights, shadows. No title. Any suggestions?

Oh, that's an interesting thought! 8-)

It reminds me of a dreamcatcher.

(nods) I'd prefer to avoid referencing something which smacks of cultural appropriation, though. Especially as I'm not even in the USA culture, let alone American Indian culture...

Porthole in a Luxury Space Nebulae Sightseeing Ship?

[kerravonsen]

Heh, it does make one think of something out of Dune or Doctor Who, doesn't it? Except it doesn't quite look enough like a window to me, alas. And I don't know how I could make something look like the depths of space rather than just a flat surface...
A challenge for the future, perhaps.

The sketchpad online lets you save without having to screenshot, so it's easy to line up images properly to animate. :^)

Ooh! Like he's galloping through the trees and the light/shade changes as he goes.

Or maybe he's the Horse of a Different Color from the Wizard of Oz. :^)

Re: Sketchpad horse gif

[scaratch]

Ah, yes maybe. I'll admit that I had to google that. :D

In the Way Olden Days, they took four white horses and physically colored them.

The ASPCA refused to allow the horses to be dyed; instead, technicians tinted them with lemon, cherry, and grape flavored powdered gelatin to create a spectrum of white, yellow, red, and purple. ... They had to be prevented from licking the colored powder off themselves between takes.

Wow, thank you! Interesting stuff.
