I saw the moon but almost missed the cat
The round bright moon was hard to miss during my evening walk, in sharp contrast to Melon the black neighborhood cat.

Custom bone ash urn design
Inspired by life vessels that mixed clay with human bone ashes, I envisioned a custom-designed urn decorated with drawings made by a different composition of bone ashes and clay over the base material.

The little cookie girl with dall-e paintings
This is an experiment to generate images directly from texts from the little cookie girl.
Each prompt below is appended with “oil painting by Rembrandt”.
On a freezing New Year’s Eve, a happy young girl, warm and well clothed, huddles in the alley between two houses, trying to sell cookies, which she eats one by one, to keep herself occupied.
In the sweetness of the cookies she sees a series of comforting visions: the warm iron stove, the lovely roast goose, the great glorious Christmas tree. Each vision disappears as a cookie was eaten.
In munching the next cookie she sees her grandmother, the only person that also made cookies with her. To keep the vision of her grandmother alive as long as possible, the girl consumes the entire pack of cookies.
When the cookies are gone the girl is full to the throat, and she takes Uber to carry her home.
The next morning, the father finds the girl sleeping on her bed with a smile on her face, and expresses joy. He does not know about the wonderful visions she had seen, or how happy she is with all the cookies in her belly.

Sunset with pink horizon and sickle moon
I did a very quick (in seconds) watercolor painting based on visual impression of a sunset I just saw, and let stable diffusion create variations from it.

How many of them know or care that they are part of an evil empire?

Singing head
I quickly sketched this sculpture on my moto-x4 phone in the museum but opted to add motion graphics over a stock photo at home later.
