Breughel's Tree AI

Here's an odd experiment with Leonardo.Ai--I was trying to generate a version of Bosch's Tree Man from the right-hand panel of the Garden of Earthly Delights--but instead I got this:

Another variation:

Little Tree in the Wind

This was intended to be a little throwaway piece, but it came out quite well.

Little Tree in the Wind, 2014, acrylic on cardboard, 7" x 6.5" approx.

Tree of Light and Life

A new smallish painting, also in a kind of pointilistic style:

The Origin of All Things

In case you were wondering, here it is:

The Origin of All Things, 2012, acrylic on foamcore, 11" x 7.5" approx.

Among the Roots of a Great Tree

I've always been fascinated by the organic shapes of trees and tree roots. This is one of several images I've done on this theme.

Among the Roots of a Great Tree, 2011, brush pen on paper, 16.5" x 14".

Monster in the Shape of a Tree

Or a tree in the shape of a monster...


Monster in the Shape of a Tree, 2010, ink & acrylic on cardboard, 8.75" x 5.5" approx.

Tree

A study of a grotesque tree -- imagined, not from nature.

Tree Of Lost Souls

Another drawing from the Hell sketchbook:



Brush & ink on recycled paper, 2007, 11" x 8" approx. The Hell sketchbook now has around 60 images -- going on for half-full. One idea would be to select & publish 100 of the best images as "100 Views of Hell". I'm not sure how this is going to turn out.
