  • Odd Prompts: Autumn’s Guardian

    Odd Prompts: Autumn’s Guardian

    I’ve been struggling to find time for creativity these last few months. My mind seems to be filled with other stuff that pushes the urge to imagine right out of the way.  I thought I’d explore styles with this last week’s prompt. My prompt came from Becky Jones with “The Guardian was napping in the…

  • Clothed in Mystery

    Clothed in Mystery

    Alma Boykin’s post over at the Mad Genius Club today got me thinking. So I wandered into my Midjourney art studio (heh, the discord server I use for this sort of thing) and poked the ai a little to see what I got. What I got was fun, because instead of using the costumes to…

  • Odd Prompts: Stylized Work

    Odd Prompts: Stylized Work

    The prompt was ” There were rows and rows of monks standing, watching… It didn’t fit in any way into the WIP, so rather than starting something new, while I’m under a deadline, I decided I’d feed the prompt into Midjourney, and see how many ways I could stylize the results by tweaking the prompts.…

  • Odd Prompts: No Don’t Stop

    Odd Prompts: No Don’t Stop

    When told to stop, don’t do that, how do you react?  Sometimes, we listen and respect the caution. Sometimes, it makes us charge ahead harder. Sometimes, we cock our head in skepticism and verify that what we’re told is true.  My prompt this last week from the More Odds Than Ends Crew, and specifically Fiona…

  • Odd Prompts: MidJourney Styles

    Odd Prompts: MidJourney Styles

    So, I’ve been slugging my way through a short story that is emotionally fraught. No place to fit in the prompt. What you’ve got instead is an exploration of styles available through the art AI tool, MidJourney. I use this heavily in my graphic design of various projects, and when something new comes out, I…

  • Art Peregrinations

    Art Peregrinations

    A bit under the weather today, but MidJourney rolled out V4, so I’ve been playing with it. This is a whole other level of AI art and as much as I have been doing? This is only getting better. So much fun. Honestly I could play with it like a game for hours. The story…

  • Travelling With an AI

    Travelling With an AI

    A guest post from Marion M. As a military brat, I’ve been the kid on some of those interminable road trips, and have hauled my own along on a few all-day treks as well. Travel games are a thing… and this is a very creative one! You can find part one of my unorthodox ways…

  • Teaching Art History with an AI

    Teaching Art History with an AI

    And other unorthodox uses of MidJourney. This started because my son, who is 17 now, and in his senior year of highschool (hybrid homeschooled and community college courses) was very interested in the MidJourney images I was generating. I’ve said from the beginning that this felt as much like a game, as it did making…

  • Picking up Spares and Running with Them

    Picking up Spares and Running with Them

    I am still very much playing with MidJourney, or as my friend Travis has dubbed it, Midj (I pronounce that like Midge) which you’ll know if you’re on Discord with me or watching my instagram. It’s a fantastic tool, and it’s taking time to learn how to get the best out of it, like any…

  • Bounce, bounce, bounce

    Bounce, bounce, bounce

    Wheeee….  *doppler effect*  Excited artist running through, waving tablet, paintbrush thrust through her twisted-up knot of hair.  I have a new toy! If you want to see more of my work, check it out at MidJourney. All of these were generated using a text prompt through the AI. I haven’t done anything to them in…

  • Odd Prompts: The Garden

    Odd Prompts: The Garden

    Same characters and timeline as last week, just a bit further along. I don’t know yet what, if anything, I’m doing with this story.  *** “John?” Bonnie paused at the foot of the stairs, looking up into the darkness. Their joy in arriving at their new home, and being on their honeymoon, had been tempered…
