Sneak peek

9.11.23

It is so funny to me how out of nowhere my skill level advances in certain aspects of my life. I made this joke before that everytime I get an apple update (which I got yesterday) I also receive a skill upgrade 😂.

So I thought I'd share a little sneak peek of my newest digital painting animation of a very versatile photo, that I would call 'me but better', I think of her as the best me I can be, my higher self me. I envisioned an all white angelic theme in a wintery snowy aesthetic. I LOVED how it turned out so I posted it on IG right away last night, even though it is out of seasonal order 🤣. I did get good feedback which is nice to hear sometimes. I picked an instrumental song to go with the animation, that sounded cold and ethereal to me.

I was up long past the time I usually go to bed and created a few alternative themes. I decided to do an overlay change, that I love so much which is the SB02 Sunset Stripes in Motionleap, then I took it to facetune to add more vibrance to the parts the light shines in. That was an easy one, which didn't take that much extra work. However, then I got more ambitious and took my original pic over to procreate and painted the shit out of it and added textures, to create a devilish theme, to compliment the angelic one and I reversed the photo direction as well to show opposites and animated upside down in motionleap to get the overlay to flow in the direction I wanted then saved it and edited the direction back right side up although I have to say it looks pretty cool upside down too. It was so fun and definately my favorite now. I cannot wait to show it to you, and I'm not going to be able to wait to show it on IG. But I am posting it here first!

So lets just call this a pre art dump and I'll show everything I came up with tomorrow. I am back! I'm grateful 🙏🙏🙏.  Ready to create more stuff today. I love magical Mondays. I feel So good, and aligned today. Yes! So below is an animated clip of each, I had to adjust the quality of these clips to fit them both in under 5mb so they aren’t as vibrant here. You'll see that better in the stillshots tomorrow, and feel free to check them out on IG, they compress files too but I think they may look  little better there plus music!

Angelic 😇 & Devilish 😈 Enjoy!
