One of my favorite fan art themes is the dingo and pigeon sharing a smoke, while the bird is perched on top of dingo’s head. In doing some creative exercises on my iPad Pro, I familiarize myself with some of the extended use applications and how to manipulate images, while working from a generative AI backdrop, which allows for huge shifts in temperament and theme, at a moment’s notice. Some of the images evoke notions of things we have seen before, such as cartoons, perhaps an artist, or an art movement in history. Using this simple subject matter as inspiration, I try to discover, invent, or manipulate the thematic and compositional contents of the premise, and it serves as a rich playground for uncovering new meaning.

| This is the basic vector image ink-drawing-styled template, from the Vector Q app. |

 |
| I found inspiration in the simple lines and playful colors in this randomly generated version. |
 |
| The triangles and shading in this image caught my eye. |
 |
| I liked the humorous cartooning lines, here, to top off some fortunate shading effects, of the triangles. |
 |
| I played around with this image, a fair amount, but I kept the divergent contrasting color theme somewhat intact. |
 |
| I felt that this dusty rose vector cut out, with a blank background, would be the type of image I could use, later on, as compositing material, in to new compositional settings. |
 |
| I liked the bold primitives and gaudy color palette of this one, that I worked on. |
 |
| This was a randomly generated image that came out pretty neat. |
 |
| The Fauvist allusions in this randomly generated image are glaringly apparent, I feel. |
