dream journal: this thing

[caramelchameleon]

all one creature, poking out of a pool of water
the snake heads could each produce a different type of alcohol from their mouths. i mean, probably alcohol? they'd just horf up a big stream of it.
other than that i don't remember what she was doing or where i was

i'm not 100% confident that's what the central body looked like, the details of the dream are fuzzy and i mostly remember sneks, but that's my best reconstruction yeah!

and......... (SHRUG) didn't think about it, genuinely just picked what felt right! none of them are right up to full saturation, they're all at least a little bit muted, which helps.. all of them are relatively cool colors, i would say? even the orange is pretty dull, and the yellows are more like beige/tan. that probably unifies it some.

oh, it occurred to me i could pop the image into greyscale for Deep Analysis and as it turns out, 4/7 snakes + the hair are almost the same value, 2/7 (orange and tan) + the body are similar light values, and the dark purple on the far left is noticeably darker, about the same value as the hair shadows. neat! it was not at all on purpose
