Below are my steps I took to create this third design.

The scene is ethereal and enhances my vision of spirits with the title ***Among the Divine***. I haven't tokenized this animation, but may do so in the future.

I wanted to highlight and represent this design more as a spirit, so I applied several veils. The female's demure but dramatic pose stopped me the moment I gazed upon her face. That determined stare draws one to the object of her sympathy. For the feeling of sorrow is evident in her demeanor. She sits among elements that represent purity of mind and body as she gazes at a helpless soul requesting spiritual intervention.

Below are my steps:
I utilized Canva, my design program, to blend the images, adding layers of elements that includes tools to remove backgrounds, resize, detach elements from their backgrounds, colorize, filter, duplicate, and reposition items as required.

The image for the young child sitting among the spiritual items was a unique find that fit well with the theme. I only needed to replace the image with an adult body that appeared to rise from the water. Also, my pure fractal resembling a purple bird in flight added a nice element to the skyline.
The weathered hands I retrieved from the stable diffusion program, Night Cafe. By placing the dove in hands, I believe that simple request for grace to be bestowed was displayed.
Once I completed the still version, I used Mosh (f/k/a) PhotoMosh to achieve the animation. With the filter *Light Streak*, the design reflected a spiritual vibe with the light floating in and out, especially around the shoulders and neck area.
