Arrival or Departure? | The Gaugan Artificial Intelligence Drawing

For my digital drawing scene this week, I chose a scenery that suggests beings either being dropped off or picked up by a spacecraft. I wanted the scene to take place in the water under cover of the brushes near the shore. The scene needed to be during the dark of night.

I utilized the Nvidia Gaugan AI drawing program. The software generates photorealistic imagery from basic brush strokes. You can add various elements, i.e. buildings, grounds, landscape, and plants. The program takes your basic drawing strokes and apply them to a blank canvas.

Below is the image of my basic brush strokes on the blank canvas.

Once I finish my brush strokes and apply my various background filters and effects, the program then creates a drawing based upon those brush strokes from its library. I can then download my finished images.

Remember to save this image and each additional image your produce before moving to the next filter and effects background.

Below are two of my filters and effects images:

This first image certainly does resemble a mysterious rendezvous.
