A blog related to original AI artworks. I make AI artworks using coined words and emoji as prompts.

When AI Learns from Arcimboldo and “Negates” Rubens, it Paints a Variety of Decorative Faces and Planar Surfaces

Giuseppe Arcimboldo was a Renaissance painter known for creating strange faces composed of vegetables, small animals, and more. When his name is given to Stable Diffusion 2.1, the AI creates images reminiscent of Arcimboldo’s own work. However, when the name of another artist is provided as a negative prompt, the images undergo various transformations. In this case, the name given is Rubens.

First, when only Arcimboldo’s name is provided as a positive prompt, the following images are produced. These depict men with decorated faces and planar surfaces.

In contrast, when Arcimboldo’s name is specified as both the positive and negative prompts, the AI creates images resembling planar surfaces (masks). These shapes are simpler than those created when only the positive prompt is specified.
