Since deciding to continue the freestyle collages in the LMAC Community, I've created five thus far. My current collage project is the sixth in my FreeStyle collage theme series and deals with the theme "the ballet". The centerpiece for my theme was a lighthouse. It doesn't seem likely that these two would be paired in a scene, however, I decided that a ballet performer would dance by the light of the moon holding on to a lighthouse window.
It's an eerie scene, especially with the supporting cast. After compiling different types of art images, here is the final result. I'll explain my steps below in exploring the theme of the lighthouse.
For my FreeStyle No. 6, I wanted to include in my scene the contest image from LMAC's Round #149.
I hope my college theme complements the image.
Beyond the mountains hidden in behind the rushing waters, the lighthouse stands. It no longer navigates the course for workers of the sea. Its beacon dimmed so that light from beyond the mountain could shine. Only the night dwellers who dare to gaze upon the tower come to witness every fortnight the dance in the beacon.
To create my collage theme, in addition to my fractal art, I again relied upon the stable diffusion programs to create variations of a few images contributed to the LIL.
In my current theme, images from @eve66, @donroberts, and @digitalis helped to provide a different look. I love variety, so I feel that the stable diffusion images will work to provide an alternative and give me a different feel to my themes without using the same LIL images each week.
Using the LIL images as the starting points, the various stable diffusion programs were able to produce lovely versions in the style I indicated.
Take a look at these images from the LIL and their transformations. I love how they turned out.

After completion of the stable diffusion art, I paired it with my fractal art. I uploaded all images into Canva to take advantage of my Annual Pro Membership Subscription. Below are the additional images I included to complete my theme.
