My latest cryptoartwork, Hidden In Plain Sight, is what you could call a "preliminary experiment" that turned out way better than I expected.

I had an idea for using the Dead Coins website to create an image composed entirely of scam coins, but needed to test out some of the Mask functions in GIMP first, and it turned out way better than I expected.

The Snake0 illustration is donated to the Public Domain by the Pearson Scott Foresman company, and looks absolutely marvelous without modification too:

here are a few process shots:

A close up on what the image is composed of:

One of the layer's, non-modified:

The layer mask applied to it. Black means transparent:

The image with applied mask

Combining a couple of different versions of this, along with one where the mask was on the Snake shape itself, to get the version passed through Deep Style:

And, once passed through Deep Style to "melt" the snake itself and the different styles into a coherent whole, Voila:

OH, and apparently I've been on the platform for two years now. Yay !
