Infiltrating Earth - What Domination Looks Like | nftshowroom X alienarthive challenge for August : ALIEN Theme No. 5

The design is titled What Domination Looks Like. My vision for this design stems from world events. What we think we know about others unfold in due time. While we wait, the horrors of one's actions diminish our faith in justice, values, and ethics. It's not so much as an outside evil force, it's the enemy within. No matter the source, the outcome will be devastation.

Below is my second collage design for the theme depicting an ALIEN in line with the partnership of NFTShowroom with @alienarthive for a August Alien Art Challenge.

According to the challenge post, NFTShowroom will feature all the month's four elements themed Art minted on the NFT Showroom home page / twitter and Alien Art Hive will be curating participants' blog posts.

For my current mixed media art project, I wanted to create an alien force of power. I retrieved a frightening and powerful alien that represents individuals on Earth who wield the same power over others through force or other mind-altering means.

I utilized StarryAI for this stable diffusion image. Out of the four images I retrieved, I chose the one below as it looks majestic as it sits on his throne with his subjects surrounding and protecting it. Style: Andromedians StarryAI Text Input: *"Alien God sitting on a throne. The throne is a high-back chair overseeing a race of creatures. The creatures are tall, thin, have long noses and short tentacles. Their eyes bulge and their bodies glow."* Quality: Fast Seed: 117229736 Image Strength: 50

Other images I paired with the stable diffusion created an air of supremacy in the ruler's domain. To suggest a reign of terror, I chose one of my red fire pure fractals I designed in the advanced fractal rendering program, Apophysis 7X.

The second pure fractal was used as a background. Also, the image portraying sound waves was meant to portray the power of persuasion and suggestion as the alien's voice waffles through around the globe spreading falsehoods.

Purple and white watercolor background ~ Orange and red abstract background ~ Blue sound waves ~ Blood splatter ~ Red claws ~ Pure Fractal titled "purple flower" ~ Pure Fractal titled "Red Cone".

Utilizing Canva, my design program, I uploaded all images to blend. I leave with you my procedures which began with a blank, white canvas. I then add layers of elements in accordance with my upgraded Annual Pro Membership that includes tools to remove backgrounds, resize, filter, duplicate, detach items from their backgrounds, and reposition items as required.
