Artificial Intelligence in Art

Artificial Intelligence (KI) in art creation is a fascinating and multifaceted topic. From mere support to becoming a dominant force in the creative process, the dynamics between human and machine are evolving. In this article, I explore the current developments and possibilities that arise from the use of AI in art. In today's era, AI models such as Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, and Dall-E are at the forefront of the creative process. These models utilize vast datasets to generate context-based associations that serve as the basis for creating artworks. However, the range of possibilities depends on the trained data models and the parameters used. More control over Artificial Intelligence We are witnessing an upsurge of tools that grant artists more control over AI. An outstanding example is ComfyUI, a user interface that allows controlling the outputs of AI not only through text prompts but also through image prompts and videos. Through the so-called Image Prompt Adapters [Read more...]

Art and Technology: Thanks to AI Stable Diffusion and ControlNet, pencil sketches can be transformed into 3D renderings in a matter of seconds.

In the era of AI, technology has made incredible strides that surpass our imagination. A remarkable combination of AI algorithms like Stable Diffusion and ControlNet is opening new avenues in the field of art. In this article, I write about how you can transform your pencil sketches into stunning 3D renderings within seconds. This is what happens when art and technology work hand in hand. The Inspiration Behind the Idea The idea to render my sketches using artificial intelligence dawned on me during my experiments with AI technologies. It was during this exploration that I came across the fascinating results of the Vizcom AI software. (available at https://www.vizcom.ai) This software allows for the creation of design renderings from sketches in just a few seconds. I was captivated by the notion of harnessing such technology for my own creative purposes, particularly when combined with open-source solutions like Stable Diffusion and ControlNet. The prospect of [Read more...]

From Pen and Paper to Code and Computer, my artistic journey

Aleisa - Stefan Eisele - Portrait

Creativity knows no bounds. It evolves, matures, and transforms over time. My artistic journey is a voyage through various techniques, mediums, and sources of inspiration that ultimately led me to a fusion of traditional art and modern technology. It all began with my passion for comics and a penchant for realistic drawing styles. Hours upon hours were spent refining my comic skills, striving to emulate the diverse styles of comic artists. My affinity for fine liners and pencils resulted in sketches that immersed me in the art of drawing. The idea of infusing color into my fine liner drawings led me to watercolors. During this phase, the captivating style of Spawn comics served as a wellspring of inspiration. However, my horizons expanded when my brother gifted me a Salvador Dalí art book. Dalí's surrealist works deeply fascinated me, sparking my curiosity for breaking with reality and creating absurd compositions. Throughout my school years, I dedicated myself to art, [Read more...]
