NFT Showroom partnered with Alien Art Hive for a SPRING CHALLENGE. I decided to participate as Spring is a lovely reminder of renewal and a new beginning. According to the challenge post, you can join in by:
- making art that represents spring for you;
- minting it on: https://nftshowroom.com;
- making a blog post about your art and link to your minted piece in Alien Art Hive Community; and
- using "nftshowroom" in your tags.
@nftshowroom and
@nftshowroom remind us that Spring often symbolizes renewal, growth, rebirth, fertility and transformation. It can also represent a period of hope and optimism after winter's end.
Also,
@nftshowroom will be featuring all the SPRING ART minted on the NFT Showroom home page / twitter and Alien Art Hive will be curating your blog posts.
This challenge is for the full month of APRIL.

For this current Spring Art project, I wanted to portray a scene with a surprise element. Complete opposite views of the background as compared to the foreground as a curious onlooker seeks the first evidence of Spring. The darkness has given way to light.
Below are my steps. I included two stable diffusion images retrieved from Night Cafe and StarryAI.
Night Cafe Text Input:
"Illustration of life in the year 3000."
Model: Stable Diffusion 1.5
Initial Resolution: Thumb
Aspect Ratio: 1:1 / Runtime: Short
Seed: 3670240120
Overall Prompt Weight: 50%
Sampling method: DDIM
Night Cafe Result:
StarryAI Text Input:
"Hummingbird lost in Little Shop of Horrors trying to escape the man-eating plants."
Style: PARADIGM SHIFTER
StarryAI Result:
I utilized Canva, my design program, to blend the different type images. I 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, and reposition items as required.
I share with you my completed project:
