They all have something in common: a couple of jugs and one rug.
This is version #1 hand drawn
This is version #2 Put through AI
Well, it’s a seed of an idea. I don’t think the hand letters work here, but I do love blending images like this.
Here I go again. I love mixing images and blending them together. I have an idea in my head and I’m trying different combinations. Hand drawn series (Sunflower Faces) and add that to a (delicate peacock feather)…, or visa versa. Three choices and even though the sunfaces are exactly the same drawing, they are uniquely different…different moods, and cool textures.
What’s better than shopping in a candy store where the proprietor says, take anything you like.😍
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.
I have been painting fish, faces, and flowers for a long time. I might have more art supplies than your average art store (just kidding, but it’s close). Some ingredients I use over and over are fish and flowers, fish turning into faces, flowers turning into fish. In this painting the basic shapes of koi and waterlilies are colored with colored pencil. No wonder I’m never bored drawing every day.
Here are two images I’m developing. Tell me which one you like better. I’m thinking they look a little creepy with these old and faded wildflowers. . Maybe that’s good. If they were fresh flowers the scenes would be more normal, or uplifting. But I’m not really looking for normal. I’m thinking this could be like a snapshot from a short mystery fiction. If you leave your ideas in the comments, that would be nice. This AI is not easy and I’m appreciating good feedback. thanx
