From simple gull in flight photo to stained glass with a little Gemini AI magic
I am finding “dynamic” is a surprisingly useful word in my AI image prompts. It is more descriptive than I think I originally gave it credit for being, and brings out greater contrast in colors, as well as vibrance.

From simple human made and colored mandala to Gemini AI stained glass
I designed a simple mandala to use as a sticker in my journal, then colored it in on my tablet. Next I tried a few prompts with AI to make it look like a bit more than a basic doodle.

A Mandala I colored…
A lot of my early stickers came from mandalas I colored, many I both designed and colored. When I asked Gemini AI to show me this one as stained glass it basically smoothed out the colors, but left the bold black lines as they were without adding any obvious ones. Perhaps it already looking a…

Gemini AI dynamic watercolor painting of Osprey photograph I took
I really love the sticker from AI for this photo. It took the bird stretching its wings and moved them into a graceful pose that would have made for an amazing photo, but as it stands captures the wonder I felt spying on these Osprey in their nest.

Gemini AI Atlantic Puffin… with a little manual editing, from one of my photos…
I probably spent more time on this one than I should have, but I really had high hopes for it. From original photo to final sticker I went through a lot of iterations. I didn’t want a photorealistic background, but I found I wanted some sense of the environment. I wanted a glow that immediately…

Gemini AI painting from a sunset photo in Nova Scotia, Canada
Sunset as we sailed in Nova Scotia was an amazing mix of colors, made more magnificent by the darkness, but that was part of why I particularly wanted an image from this series as a painting for my journal. Something to lose the pixelation in the brushstrokes, and draw out the colors that were so…

Gemini AI painting of Osprey I photographed in Maine
I really struggled with this one. Not only was it more photorealistic than I wanted, but the bird blends with the water more than I hoped it would in the painting. This is closer to I wanted, though the glow is brighter than I would like. I wanted something that highlighted the bird, without overpowering…

Gemini AI watercolor of a helicopter from a photograph I took
There is something incredibly amazing about seeing a helicopter flying nearby. Seeing a Coast Guard helicopter performing a rescue at sea is amazing, and interesting to photograph, so I wanted a fun sticker to put in my journal about it. I really like the color of the sky, and the interesting texture and clouds. A…

Gemini AI dynamic painting of Portland Headlight from my photograph
As you can see in this image, I went through with the clean up this photo tool and removed buildings. I wasn’t looking for realism out of the painting I wanted, I was looking to capture the feeling of excitement from sailing by the Portland Headlight.

Gemini AI dynamic painting of Boston from a photo taken at sunset
I rarely think to keep the original photo with the AI art I generate from it, that’s something I am trying to get better about. This photo is from the series I took that led to this painting, which captures the silhouette of the skyline, and the dynamic colors of the setting sun. More and…

Gemini AI dynamic painting of a bird photographed in Greenland
It took me several tried to get this one so I liked it. I found I wanted the bird in focus, sharp and identifiable, but I didn’t want the stone wall to have the same sharp photorealism. I found myself asking for adjustments to the foreground and background, wanting a dynamic painting that truly highlighted…

AI Stained Glass Cruise Ship sailing by a Lighthouse stained glass
This is not from a photo! The majority of my prompts recently have been from my own photos, but sometimes I find myself prompting for an image based on the photo I wish I could have taken. As much fun as it is to photograph lighthouses as we sail past, sometimes I wonder what it…

Gemini AI dynamic watercolor of a lighthouse from one of my photos
I love the colors in this one, and how it took an interesting sky and amped it up to the max. The lighthouse was out on the tiny island of rocks, and as I photographed it I tried to imagine what the lighthouse keepers life must have been like a hundred years ago. This sticker…

A dynamic watercolor from a photo of a bird using Gemini AI
I like the featured attempt a lot better than this splatter marked one from a second photo from the same series, but that could just be me.

AI oil painting of a ship sailing out of Boston
I prompted for a cruise ship, and got something that is half sail boat, half cruise ship, so I can not say this is exactly what I was looking for, but it is striking to look at, so it gets points for making an interesting sticker, even if Copilot missed the intended mark.

AI Generated Airplane Sticker for a travel journal entry
When I asked AI to generate a simple sketch of an airplane to use as a sticker in my journal I didn’t expect a “vintage” model plane as opposed to a modern jet… a reminder of the importance of word choice in prompts. That said, given I make stickers to add interest and character to…

Dynamic result from a prompt fail with Copilot AI

One Mandala, three variations on seeing it as stained glass
Oil Painting, Water Color Painting, or simply as stained glass. The watercolor painting had me curious if Copilot AI could show it to me as a tattoo, in color, and simplified.

A variety of results all from the same mandala and a few tweaks to a simple prompt
I didn’t ask for much… fireworks, stained glass, suncatcher… the only thing I really changed was the look or medium I asked for and that it be inspired by the mandala I originally included. The one exception was when I tried asking “as seen from a nearby hillside”.

Cozy English Village and Abstract Painting Prompt to Copilot
I don’t know what I actually expected from a prompt that combined the concept of an abstract painting for a request for a cozy English village, but I really like the results Microsoft Copilot came back with. It is recognizable as the little village I wanted, yet not photorealistic or clearly defined… rather hinted at…

AI Art burst of color from a nebula painting prompt

This time the mandala came out looking like a tile
I made this several months ago, and don’t remember which AI app I used, which is a shame as I really like the way the mandala ended up looking like a tile that could be used on a kitchen counter or in a bathroom… a bit complicated… but striking. Another interesting sticker to use in…

Cosmic wonder and otherworldly adventure in AI Art

Splashes of color like this are great as backgrounds…

AI Art – An alien world with a waterfall…

Some AI prompts are more successful than others… love one of these futuristic Cruise Ships
This second image did a better job of combining the two aspects of the prompt, future and cruise ship — the one at the top put a very modern looking cruise ship in a futuristic environment. Neither got exactly what I was hoping for, but both provided something fun — food for thought if you…
