day 707
day 707. A popping blue smile board. Enjoy the rest of your day!
I feel relief
YES omg yes I finally got what I wanted from organizing my AI. π
It took 3 months, to upscale and organize 22245 images, but now I have a list with every good project I have made so far and 38 gb of images on my harddrive. π΅βπ« It's gonna be alot of photobooks and puzzles. π
Doing this was important to me, because that was my "AI learning phase" .Now having it all organized means I can use that knowledge and experiences to make the images I want to see more precisely. And I can't be fully inspired to do graffiti art, when I have this thing in the back of my head.
Also while putting in time to understand, I got alot of awesome images, that I did not want to let to go to waste. If I wouldve not organized them all I wouldve drowned in images and wouldve lost complete track.
An then we would've lost a lot of great pictures, that I can now show to you.π
So I am very proud of myself that I was able to pull through and not gave up in the middle. I grew alot on that one.
And from now on I dont have to spent 50% of my time doing this. π I can be more creative again and also do something with these pictures. So far I have mostly just showed you the bare pictures, without me making something out of them. We will see.
I am not 100% done yet. The list is what I wanted yeah, but now I will make a folder on my hardrive for only the good pictures that are worth showing it to you. So I will go through each of these projects and pic out the good ones. Then upscale them to 8k and then I am truly done.
Thank you for being so patient with me, I have not really been creative the last time.
Randoms
Here are some random pictures from my collection, that I like alot. π
Can you tell wich one did not used my handmade graffiti as a source? 3 of them did and one of them is just a text prompt. π
day 706
day 706. Some full AI boards today. From my corrupted coasts project. π
day 705
day 705. I never made a board out of my "fresh" piece I did like two years ago. It's still pretty fresh. π
good news, I am basicalley done with organizing my AI π€© now its just a matter of sorting the 38,3 gb of images on my hardrive. I soon be done and then I start a big graff project. π₯³
day 704
day 704. Felt abit creative again and made a new "grounded" concept with a new brushtool. π
new letters
Daily practice is essential when it comes to improving in any skill or craft efficiently.
Consistent repetition of a task allows your brain to create new neural pathways, making it easier for you to perform that task more efficiently and effectively over time. Even if it's just one letter a day. It helps keep the flow.
In the case of improving your letterstyle in graffiti, practicing daily helps you to build muscle memory and develop a better understanding of letter structure, flow, and composition. It also allows you to experiment with new techniques, styles, and color combinations, which can ultimately help you to develop your own unique style.
Remember, passion makes improvement effortless.
So don't force it and have fun.
The weirder the better
"Embracing one's weirdness is a way to honor and express the unique qualities and perspectives that make us who we are" -gpt
Since I am exploring v5 I really started to appreciate the weird artifacts and the overall surreality that occurs in these complex scenes. π€ͺ
Then realizing that these will be gone at some point, when AI keeps getting better, there will be less artifacts.
I just cant get enough. The weirder the better.π
day 703
day 703. Made a new handstyle today "This board sucks, because I am sitting here organizing" . Turned out pretty dope and I got carried away and did some doodles too. π
I am super close to finish organizing. Like tomorrow or so. π² Then theres more time again to be creative. The problem is that I have sort of a creative blockade, when I have something like that in the back of my head. So it was either throw away huge potential or organize all of it. So prepare for new letters and graff, new projects and maybe even a livestream.π
day 702
day 702. Made some board concepts from the new elephant project I did today.
The aspect ratio is 27:7. Perfect for a boardhsape. π
New elephant-graffiti-mix
I am exploring v5 and want to share a prompt I just did. After being happy with the prompt I used my handmade graffiti as sources and created the final pictures.
Full Prompt:
"low angle RAW Photo of An intricately vibrant detailed colourful pastel pencil drawing of a majestic elephant in action pose , stoically making its way through a bustling city street, cars and pedestrians hurrying around it in a flurry of activity. The artist's skilled shading brings out the gentle intelligence in the elephant's eyes, capturing its quiet dignity amidst the chaos of the city. The use of a desaturated muted palette creates a sense of nostalgia and timelessness, emphasizing the elephant's unique presence in an urban setting. there are coloursplahes all around --ar 2:3 --v 5"
The second one is by far my favourite.
Day 701
day 701. Made a version for bill of yesterdays board. Put both comissions I made for him on it and even did some variations. π
New background for 701+
I finished my background for the boards 701+.
I couldve put more work in it, but I have so much other things in mind. But 801+ will be an improved version of that and it's gonna be dope!
This one is still pretty cool and I hope you like it too. Maybe I do some small adjustments the next days.
EAT FRUITS KIDS
"Eat Fruits Kids!"
day 700
day 700. π₯³
A compilation of my digital graffiti and characters I made so far. All of it is handmade.
New background tomorrow. Have not even started, but I already have an idea. π
Overall I am normally way too busy with other things, because I finally want to get this organizing done, but still wanted to do something special.
And I kinda hate the letters on there, because I have not done a new piece in a while, but my lettering has improved till then. I have not included the recent comissions, so thats why most of the stuff is quite old.
Old but gold. π
New artbook finished
I just finished my new artbook "honorable mentions vol.2" This time it will have whopping 60 pages of some of my favourite work.π
Compared to vol.01 I doubled the pages and I have gone for more diversity. On some of them I even left some inspiring and motivating quotes. On others you ave some handstyles and graffiti added to it. π So here are 8 pages of it. πNext I compile it and then I order it for myself. If it turns out good and I am happy with it, you can have one too.
For now I hope you enjoy the art. π€π
Day 699
day 699. "Be happy instead" π
Next project organized
Finished organizing one of my favourite projects. The Fantastical Lands corrupted by creativity 2.0 . ππ
Here are some of my facourites. One of them is done in MJ v5 and the others are v4.
day 698
day 698. Did a rhino board out of a rhino sketch and a rhino handstyle. π
day 697
day 697. Some full AI boards today. Love these.
Organized my newest abstracts.
This post is better viewed + video on facebook.
Hello. π I invite you for a minute.π
I mixed my handmade digital graffiti with the AI (again!)π
Organized my newest abstract channel. And this time I made a video to show all of them. In that channel I pretty much only used these two digital handmade graffitis as sources. The green "rhino" and the blue "breithaupt".
And these images will make for amazing sources to mix it with my bigger projects. I attach some examples of an eagle, and lush green open meadows.
Art is in the eye of the beholder of course, but if you want to acchieve truly unique AI generated images, you gotta have good sources. And knowing what sources are good for YOU and your peersonal style is important when following this path.
And sadly there is no shortcut around it. You gotta put in the work and try around alot and alot to see what works for you, but trust me it will be worth it.π€© For me it took me around 4 months to figure it out.
But you will end up with a lot of cool images along the way. π
And it probably wont work without passion and just having a love for simply doing it. Progression and improvement will become a BREEZE and you will have a ton of fun along the way.
Someone that only does it to gain wealth and is not enjoying the task itself is destined to fail most likely.
If you do what you love and make your art the best it can be for yourself, success will come to you, because there is always someone that enjoys the same thing as you and if people see you put your heart and soul in it, they will love it too. And if not, thats ok too, because you had fun right? π
So do what makes you happy and enjoy the here and now. π
day 696
day 696. Made 3 badass concepts with my new rhinos 3.0 and my beloved rhino piece. If you seen my post from earlier, you knew it would be coming. π
RHINOS 3.0
yesterday I took my Rhinos2.0 and improved them to 3.0! π€© Source is still my "Rhino" graffiti. (See corner picture 1)
I have a bunch more, but that channel is still waiting on being organized. But I wanted to show you these.
day 695
day 695. Some popping colours and my "could B wΓΆrs" logo. π
"RANDOM-RANDOM"
today I organized my "random-random" channel. π So here are some more honorable mentions and random themes. These are brainstorms, so they could have some artifacts.
Overall getting my gallery together slowly but surely. Check out https://www.rhinosaurarts.com/a.i-art/ if you like.
Enjoy your day. ππ
day 694
day 694. Also finished organizing my "ui elements" channel. And made some cool board concepts from it. π
"random"
Finished organizing my "random" channel, where I explored some ideas. So here are some random images. π there can be some artifacts.

"Happy monk"
"Imagine that your mind is like a clear, still pond. When the pond is undisturbed, you can see the beauty of the reflections on its surface, just like you can see the clarity of your thoughts when your mind is calm.
But when you start to have thoughts and emotions, it's like throwing a pebble into the pond. The ripples of the disturbance spread out and distort the reflections, just as your thoughts and emotions can distort your perception of reality." - Chat GPT
I finished organizing my "happy monk" channel. Turned out to be around 400 images. Like half of them turned out amazing, the other half maybe makes for a good source picture. I also do save all the prompts I used and the source pictures used. Its very tedious but worth it. I can easily go back and pick it back up again. Now we start to get to the good stuff. I have about 15 channels left to organize.
Let me know if you want to see more of these, I have plenty.
The green one is my absolute favourite. I wanted to have more vibrant green meadows, and when I changed it, It turned the cloack to green aswell. It's a very happy accident.
