No inspiration is not something i struggle with it sometime i am open about and i believe that Ai might not be very welcome around here but i think we should still have a rational talk about it may it come with more well thought post or just sharing what it can or cant do.
It not surpris if it turn into me rationalizing for me it normal to defend my choose because i have to question them myself and if i cannot defend it rationally then i will realize that i need to change course.
Practicing building visual library as many layers may it be building mood board,collecting reference of inspiration material,exploring theme by drawing.
Ai specialty is i would say building the vocabulary itself and building the quick visual language that translate into shape language not that i leak inspiration it rather a lighting fast visualization exercise rather than a dissecting kind of exercise.For me dissecting is learning about the function of job it breaking it down into simple geometric form it can also help to dissect the shape and recurring pattern. Visualization is more about composition, color, proportion,visual style.
You pass a certain point where you have done certain thing and need to keep it fresh so it also an opportunity to try something out of the box without spending large amount of energy.It thumbnailling on steroid but it not the same because thumbnailling is a problem solving process not a visualisation process.
As you advance you gotta break of old habit you gotta shatter your assumption about subject and tool and try thing that what i am doing.I am not saying i know the outcome but atleast i think about why i do the thing i do.
My line of work is design it as more to do with thinking and problem solving it can be done either on paper or through visualization.No body who expect to be making a final image could expect to get around the fundamental of visual art ai doesnt give you an easy route it doesnt magically put your brain onto the paper and teach you if anything about light and shadow or perspective which mean it doesnt teach you how to fix something it spew out which still mean you have to support it with drawing skill or more accurate prompt making.
I think there is a shift away from needing as much drawing skill toward more time spent in the visualization stage atleast in the field of design.I believe personally that AI is certainly not going anywhere and there is no reason to believe you or anyone are going in the same direction even if we are artist for myself i am always looking to perfect my process which is why i take risk.
The slow down in the none ai generate work post in here is due to a computer problem i had to fix which took about two month to solve it was also a period where i took my force vacation because i was mostly working digitally and the stress and time of it was already in favor of a well deserve vacation.That computer problem cause some issue with the project that were W.I.P.It also kinda destroy some aspect of how i arranged my tool in software so that had to be rebuild aswell.
Showing Ai art in my sketchbook is not meant to be disrespectful it an open form journaling of my thought and taste it not for you that why it confusing it journaling because it convenient that it here.I dont post stuff just so it can be seen or get praise.I could very well put those image with a time stamp in some folder on my computer and let them collect dust but it ultimately it not as good of a journaling tool if i have to make a conscious decision to look back i personally prefer to have them here in my sketchbook as some kind of timeline of my taste and as a reminder to keep my work diverse it also an opportunity to exchange about my taste and allow other people to exchange influence that can ultimately enrich my work.
In the end i gotta look up for what is best for myself i dont mind to justifying myself even if it not well receive life is full of disagreement it just one more of such case.
Who know where i am heading one thing seem to be that i am probably more open than most which already give me a head start in that alley.
I am some kind of world builder at heart but i operate in a visual manner when it spew out.Sometime it not straight out visual assemblage of reference if i am not familar with my subject matter sometime it not world but word assemblage it getting to know the language of a subject by dissecting the reference.Ai is similar to refining a research on google but ai tool were intended to be use as an artist tool.The advantage of Ai which i find useful for myself is that i dont get distracted when i am doing my research phase which mean i dont come across happy accident as much because there less chance of random image being part of the search result.But when i use ai can control the level of happy accident if need be with just a few adjustment in my ai tool if need be.
The choose we make boil down to who we are and what we need to do.
Let try not to see were difference as insult to what we are.But rather let see those difference as tool to learn about other and wereselve.
