A few days ago, I was in the process of designing a series of images to use for another project that featured a female of color dressed in a white tunic. I retrieved several lovely images with varying poses, a few of which I intended to use in other projects.
I love combining humans and animals in themes depicting odd encounters. The interactions can reveal surprising and unusual connections. I hope you like this pairing.
Below are my steps.

I located a unique abstract image that contained a pair of cranes. Since I like abstract art, I decided to reassemble the photo to see what could be unveiled. Also, I decided to use two stable diffusion images. Ideogram provided the female minimalist style image. The other provided the water landscape scene for one of the cranes. What I love about the water scene is how it exudes serenity.
Finally, I chose a delicate fractal I use as veils to cover many of my projects. The fractal adds an ethereal depth to the scene. I created the pure fractal in the advanced fractal rendering program, Apophysis 7X.

I list other images included in my theme.

**Ideogram text description:**
*"Woman of color's striking studio portrait, blending minimalism with the features of Natti Natasha and Karol G, her head tilted slightly upwards. Deep-set, brown eyes that meet the viewer’s gaze directly, accentuated by bold, glossy lips. A sleek, tight medium-high meticulously styled bun. Dressed in a crisp white turtleneck, she is positioned against a seamless white background. A single, silver hoop earring in left ear."*

I chose the first image of the female with her head slightly tilted. Together with the other images, I was able to construct a bizarre scene that included a female with a distorted eye. The eye is that of the crane as though viewing the world through the bird's eyes.

Utilizing Canva, my design program, I uploaded all images. I leave with you my blending procedures which began with a blank, white canvas. I then added layers of elements in accordance with my upgraded Annual Pro Membership that includes tools to remove backgrounds, colorize, resize, filter, duplicate, and reposition items as required.
Of all the available tools at my disposal, the ability to remove backgrounds thereby creating transparencies of the images and detaching elements from their backgrounds are crucial to the blending process.
