rocking horse

for digital whisper: rocking horse. the first thing that came into my mind, is what you'll see in the first two creations. but the only way i could find to bring my vision to life was through some AI play which i did on the nightcafe studio site. 

this first creation was what i generated through a request to create a horse playing a guitar, a "rocking" horse.

then i pulled out just the horse and made a digital creation with additional images from mischief circus.

and finally, just in case, a traditional rocking horse with images from mischief circus and gecko galz.

hope you enjoy! love to all.

feline friday

i discovered the feline friday blog hop at messy mimi's meanderings thanks to Nuria of bitacora literaria. the task is to post a photo, drawing, or similar of a cat. i used to have cats and i miss them a lot. this week, for the first time, i visited a local cat cafe. it's a place where for a fee you can visit some cats! here are two of the cats i met:

the 1st one pictured reminds me of an orange cat i had -- Gilda. a rare female orange. 

i had a good time at the cafe but i do not know if i would do it again. most of the cats were pretty sleepy which makes sense given that cats sleep 16-17 hours a day!

so i made a digital creation with some very awake kitties! using images from fusion dream print, designs by MANDN, dezinaworld (retired), and mischief circus (retired).

a good time either way!

love to all.
