I’ve been playing with fish for a while now. Here is a shot that was made by blending several of my drawings together into an under sea world. I like a lot because I think it asks some questions, which gives the concept a storybook quality. I’m having some trouble generating a video but hopefully that will come soon.
Here are some trees I drew. Just doodles actually. Nothing serious here but once in a while it’s just fun to play.
It’s interesting to find out how what you draw is a reflection of whatever mood you’re in. The next thing to play with is to learn how to animate the trees. Let’s see, I could animate some fruit falling from trees, or animals in the trees: dancing, falling down, playing hide and seek.
Tell me what you think.
As I explore lots of learning challenges in AI, I’m leaning on some of my favorite animals. Today I play with a moose. I’ve never seen a moose in person– in the wild. If you remember the series “Northern Exposure”, I loved the opening where they used quirky music and the big moose walking around downtown Cicely, Alaska. It still makes me smile and the moose always stuck in my head.
Here are three elements of me playing with a moose, to create 2 completely different versions.
I thought this guy was great but wanted to try another version using the same elements but adding a layer of white, to create an intricate texture and a completely different look.
If you look closely, there is an odd set of legs at the bottom of the first two. You might not ever guess they came from this little guy who is a 3rd watercolor, blended into the first 2 images. He’s not a moose at all but I included him in the mix because of the color palette and whimsical nature as a surprise element. So that’s the story of my evolving learning experience today. It’s about having fun with art and whimsical images. I think of it like cooking. The last element is the unidentiful spice that makes the dish amazing.
Lots of people say it’s a funny thing how pets look like their owners and their owners look like their pets. Do you think Abby and her big laborador retriever look alike? Maybe they just look like they are having fun going on their morning walk. Can you guess where they live?
