Somebody asked me recently “How do you come up with your ideas?” Well, this project is a good example. First I wanted to explore a variety of art styles and decided to do a portrait series of mixed-race young women in a limited pallet of blues and violets. That made me think of Duke Ellington’s […]
By Margarida Barreto Knowing Margarida Barreto for about a year, I wouldn’t expect anything from her to be less than excellent! On that point, her book doesn’t disappoint! Her subtitle is “Generative creative images from text prompts and seamlessly integrating them into your workflow.” But it could have been “Everything there is to know about […]
A new book by Holly Picano Though this book is about using DALL-E 3, it an excellent book to read no matter the text-to-image platform you are currently using. The book is a good read for both beginners and advanced prompters covering subjects that apply to any AI image creation. “Part 1: Getting to know […]
I was an early tester of Musavir when it was in Beta and have continued to use it as one of my three go-to programs. So you might like to read my opinions and see my results with the program.
Marshall McLuhan became famous in the 60’s for his statement that “The Media is the Message!” I don’t know if I’ll become famous for this statement, but I believe “The Artist is the Art!” I think you have to be an artist/designer/illustrator/art director/creative director/writer/musician/composer/singer/film maker/architect to fully appreciate the truth in that statement. But the […]
Everyone seemed to enjoy my post about prompting “A highly detailed airbrush painting, using a parametric equation to create captivating art” so I decided to cover a number of other mathematical terms used as prompts: Infinite Geometric Series Finite Geometric Series Binomial Expansion Taylor Polynomial (When I used “Taylor Series” it thought I wanted pictures […]
Even though I’ve always had in mind to be an art director and illustrator, I’ve also been a bit of a math geek. In high school, one of my majors was math, studying Algebra, Geometry, Advanced Algebra, and Solid Geometry. I also belonged to the Math Club and the Calculus Club after school. In college […]
My previous post, “Midjourney V5.2: Fibonacci Sequence & Fractal Geometry Part 3—Architecture” is a partner post with this one. Here are various architecture prompts that include “Golden Ratio” and “Fractal Geometry” in each prompt. Interesting comparison with the previous post.
I decided to complete the series I’ve been posting on LinkedIn about Fibonacci Sequence vs Golden Ratio. This series of architectural images were created with both “Fibonacci Sequence” and “Fractal Geometry” in the prompts. I’m also posting, at the same time, Golden Ratio & Fractal Geometry Part 4—Architecture. Be sure and look at that, too!
MJ understands how Fractal Geometry effects images. Though you can’t add a fractal formula as a prompt, the addition of “fractal geometry” to your prompt creates objects that either continue to create detailed patterns. With both “Golden Ratio” and “Fibonacci sequence” when “fractal geometry” is added, you get some very beautiful and intricate spiraling patterns.
