The process of designing the “Keep Creating” card with Spline Hana.
You can see that at the beginning, I was just experimenting with shapes. Honestly, I didn’t know where I was going. I only had the words “Keep Creating” in mind.
Then I remembered I had written a short paragraph a few months ago about my creative solo dates, where I don’t put too much pressure on myself. I do them just for the sake of getting that spark and enjoying the process of creating.
In the final card, I used 3D shapes, a liquid glass effect on the cursor and the word “Keep”. I used the system font and found it perfect for the word “Creating.”
I honestly love the final look.

Love how this captures the messy-to-magical part of the creative process ✨
Wxactly! That's the best part.

Love this process. Starting without a clear direction and letting the idea shape itself feels very honest, and the final result really reflects that mindset. “Keep Creating” comes through perfectly.
The process is always a bit messy, so I wanted to show everything, not just the final look.
wonderful!
🙌
Awesome work 👏
thanks a lot
Sometimes, designers begin projects by staring a hole through a blank Canvas, it can be a bit mundane like watching paint dry😂 . At first the ideas don't come but when it rains, it pours. So? Just start something, scribble , sketch, write or just do whatever sparks your creativity (even if it's doing a headstand🤣. JK)
ahahah for me it's doing random stretching around my room, handstand practice included.
Love this approach. You can really feel the freedom in the process, starting without a fixed outcome and letting curiosity lead. The connection to your creative solo dates makes the final piece feel intentional, not forced. The balance between playful 3D elements and the...

Lately I've recognized this direction on the rise and been inspired to create a collection of 18 images blending the Classical Art - Renaissance oil painting mastery with digital pixel/ASCII aesthetics, Classcii. It is a mix of centuries, a modernized and futuristic direction of the classic.
Each image is crafted around a specific tension, the classical figure or scene rendered in full oil mastery, while the digital/ASCII layer intrudes at a specific point.
Using the @Contra Labs ecosystem to choose the most adequate Ai models from the Creative Arena Leaderboard, I wanted to briefly share my personal taste and evaluation on the outputs these models generated, based on the benhchmark methodology.
For the imagery references I used Seedream 5 Lite and Google Nano Banana 2, whereas for the Image to Video I used Kling 3.0 and Veo 3.1 Fast.
In terms of Visual quality & aesthetics overall I would rank them fairly simillar with Seedream having a slight edge on the composition, specfically achieving more symmetrical outcomes featuring center alignment and a better use of whitespace, opposed to Nano Banana 2 where the use of rule of thirds is more prominent, making it visually in comparison less balanced.
Considering the Prompt adherence & accuracy, I find both models very much aligned, having Nano Banana 2 more intensified use of asscii / pixels across all outcomes, which according to my minimal taste I would rank this a weakness rather than a strong side.
Finally, in terms of Motion Realism I would unanimously rank Kling 3.0 as the better option here, considering the fluidness and physics consistency among majority of the elements in the reference. Additional advantage will be the ability to perform better at no prompt insertion compared to Veo 3.1 fast.

Super work
What if you could give a child’s drawing back as a real memory?
My little brother made me this drawing.
Like most drawings, it could’ve ended up forgotten- in a drawer, on a shelf, or lost over time.
But I kept thinking:
How do you give something back to a child that actually matters?
Not just a “thank you.”
Not just keeping it.
Something they can feel.
So I built a FLORA Technique that turns a child’s drawing into a living, cinematic moment, without changing the drawing itself.
The exact same lines.
The same colors.
The same imperfections.
But now:
– the sun glows
– the butterfly moves
– the balloons float
– the paper breathes with life
It becomes something real.
Something you can give back.
Something they can watch forever.
Keep.
Remember.
Because maybe the most powerful thing you can give back…
is showing them their imagination matters.
Built with FLORA.

Here’s the workflow
Image → Text
I first analyzed the drawing and translated it into a detailed scene description, keeping every element exactly as it is.
Image → Video
Then I animated the original image itself, no redesign, no changes. Just bringing the exact drawing to life with...
great work 👌
