Have you considered a high frame rate morph effect between images? That would increase the effective frame rate and probably would look pretty cool.
Oh good lord.

Artistic skill lies not merely in the hand, but also in the eye.
Precisely. There is no skill in artistry, it’s rather just a developed sense of style, that doesn’t come from a medium or method, it comes from growing to know oneself.

I agree. I think the distinction between arts and crafts is largely one of utility, rather than skill or technique.
Which is why I take offense to someone claiming that it selects for and requires skill. Especially because the ones making that argument are usually the ones arguing that they’re incapable of making art. I would tell them they just need to spend more time finding themselves.

And spend more time (and intentional effort) in making art! It's like people want a shortcut to end result, when "real" artists know that the process of self-discovery is the reason and means through which they make the art in the first place.
The map is not the territory. The purpose of the journey is the journey itself; the destination is simply a guiding star. A whole lot of aspirational mapmakers think if they only had "this one weird trick," they'd be gods.
>But art is mostly about surfacing the inner world Oh good lord.
