Hey Alien Art Hive Community!
Super excited to share my latest piece, "Souls Refraction," which I've just minted on NFT Showroom for the June Psychedelic Art Challenge! This challenge, in collaboration with Alien Art and NFT Showroom, really pushed me to explore some new visual territories, and I had a blast creating it.
About the Artwork:
"Souls Refraction" is an abstract digital artwork that dives deep into the concept of perception and fragmented reality. I wanted to create something that felt both complex and mesmerizing, like looking into a kaleidoscope of the mind or soul. The piece features vibrant purples and blues, with intricate circular and geometric patterns that create a sense of movement and depth. It’s all about exploring how light and essence can break apart and come back together in beautiful, unexpected ways.
My Process: A Glimpse Behind the Veil
I crafted "Souls Refraction" entirely using Sketchbook. It was a really organic process of building up layers and letting the colors guide the composition. Here's a quick look at how it came together:
- Starting the Guide: I began with a basic outline, getting the foundational shape down.
- Adding the Psychedelic Lines: Next, I started integrating those intricate circular and geometric patterns directly into the figure. This is where the "shattered" or "refracted" feel really began to emerge.
- Introducing Color: I then began to fill in specific areas, laying down the initial color base.
- Layering for Depth: Using multiple layers was key to building up the complexity and optical illusion.
- The Final Touch – Colour Burn: For the vibrant intensity you see in the final piece, I applied the Colour Burn filter. This really deepened the purples and blues, adding that distinct, high-contrast psychedelic glow.
