Last day away from home. Here’s an ibis from a photo taken at City Park. The photo was very small and blurry on my phone, so I made up most of the face and it’s probably not anything like a real ibis. But if realism is what you want, you can look at a photo.
I haven’t played with Artificial Intelligence generation of images, but I see a lot of of them going around lately. It seems to me that art is just human intelligence synthesizing images of what we see, with more or less fidelity to the mores of visual perception.
This was from the last day in the big air bnb I shared with family in New Orleans. There was a day-after picnic for the wedding-goers, there were goodbyes to say, and words of appreciation. My drawing was hurried and chaotic, not my first priority by any stretch. But here it is.
Coming from New England, where we are heading into winter and the warm weather people are getting away or going to ground, it was a major delight to be in a land of active reptiles, with lizards skittering about the edges of the patio in our lodgings.
