Toilet etiquette cat AI paintover

 

I have been experimenting with AI image generation lately. The image on the left is my interpretation and paintover of the AI generated image on the right.

The task at hand was to illustrate some rules for a toilet at work.

I wanted it to look a bit funny so I searched up in the public gallery of Midjourney (I have a subscription) to look for "Cat toilet" hoping to find some suitable generation of a cat using a cat litter tray  that I could simply slap on the rules. But I got a bit overboard.

Instead I found this cat wrapped in toilet paper. I loved that idea much more than I had envisioned and found it hilarious, so I had to paint what I saw in it. If you have acsess to midjourney you can find the link to the generation here: www.midjourney.com/app/jobs/f7… It was created by user "bunnyduster" with the prompt: "realistic black and white cat dancing with ribbons of toilet paper falling around him"

Dream Bestiary project (wip)

WIP Project: Dream Bestiary

(Note: W.I.P stands for Work In Progress. Posts tagged with WIP can be voted on here in order to encourage me to re-prioritize what to work on)

Dreams are a core interest of mine that I never tire from talking about. I document, study, and draw inspiration from my own subconscious dreams. In order to do something concrete and perhaps commercially viable with the subject matter, I'm thinking about embarking upon a quest of documenting all hopefully most of the strange creatures that form in them. This project is in it's early idea phase, with some sketches and paintings having started. If I were to make a book, I'd either select a simpler art style and redraw the creatures clearly to communicate their designs more easily, or perhaps just select art styles that suit the individual creatures. The original sketches seem too raw and messy to make sense to anyone but me, I fear. I'd like to self publish the results eventually, if I do take this path.
