I tried generating images with AI

AI-Generated Imagery

As an artist exploring digital art, I’m always on the lookout for new tools to experiment with, pushing the boundaries of creativity. Recently, I took a bold step into the world of AI-generated art, using it to generate images based on text prompts. This article shares my journey, the results, and some of the images I’ve created along the way.

What’s a Prompt

Curiosity led me to explore AI image generation, which allows users to input detailed descriptions (called “prompts”) to create entirely new visuals. The idea that I could type a concept into an AI and watch it turn into an image was both exciting and a bit surreal. Would the machine capture the emotion, depth, and vision I strive for in my own works? There was only one way to find out.

Discovering Microsoft Designer

A Creative Tool for Everyone

While exploring AI art generation, I came across Microsoft Designer, a game-changer for anyone looking to create stunning visuals effortlessly. Microsoft Designer leverages AI to transform simple text prompts into polished designs, offering a seamless way to craft images, layouts, and graphics in minutes. Whether you’re working on social media posts, digital art, or personal projects, the tool’s intuitive interface makes it accessible even for those without a design background.

Crafting the Prompts

A Delicate Balance

One of the most fascinating aspects of working with AI is how specific prompts can affect the final image. I began by carefully crafting detailed descriptions, balancing simplicity with enough detail to guide the AI. Here’s an example of one prompt I used:

blue and white porcelain samurai in stylized style with 3d japanese nature background

The Secret Is In The Details

I modified my prompt to add informations about the perspective, the posture, the elements in the background…

3d white porcelain full-body samurai stylized in black armor and masked face with hands on long swords. The background is bright Japanese nature, with flowers, clouds, dragons and golden sparkles

Generative AI : The Results

A New Perspective on Creativity

The images generated by the AI exceeded my expectations, revealing the importance of detail prompts. Knowing that the same prompt will generate different results each time.

AI : Challenges and Surprises

One of the challenges I faced was getting the AI to focus on specific details. Sometimes, it would interpret my words quite differently than I imagined, leading to unexpected (but interesting!) results. It made me realize that while AI can produce remarkable imagery, it doesn’t fully replicate the human touch of storytelling through art.

What’s Next?

While AI-generated art may never replace traditional methods, it has become a powerful tool for artists like myself to expand our creative horizons. I plan to continue experimenting with this technology, integrating it into future projects in unexpected ways. Who knows? Perhaps I’ll even collaborate with AI on my next collection.

Conclusion

A Gateway to New Artistic Possibilities

The intersection of art and technology is evolving rapidly, and AI is opening doors to uncharted territories. Whether you’re an artist looking for inspiration or simply curious about the world of AI, exploring these tools can offer exciting new perspectives. I hope this post inspires you to think about how technology can expand our creative potential.
