Decorative Photo Print

Are you looking for a decorative photo print for your kitchen? What about this bowl with apples and grapes?
By the way, you can get this design also on a puzzle in case you are looking for something fruity to do with your children or friends.

Creating prints off your AI Images with Canva

 For some time now I paint and draw - with brush and paint and in a digital way, mostly with Inkscape. But only since the last two years or so I had my paintings printed out, framed and hanged on the wall or printed and used for greeting cards. I scan my pieces and have them printed in a nearby drugstore. 

Now, with my AI artworks it is a bit difficult, most of all when working with DALL-E2. DALL-E2 renders square images. Greeting card formats are rectangles, not squares. Blowing up the image takes parts of the image away which is not good. But there is a solution: Canva!

Here are some examples of what I did:



The images consist of three layers: 
  • The first layer which later serves as a kind of frame is the background. In Canva, you can have backgrounds in the color you like, there are even backgrounds with textures. 
  • The second layer is a white rectangle (rectangles can be found among "elements"). You can also have all kinds of color, but white resembles a mount. 
  • The third layer is the image itself. 
Each layer can be positioned in the center and the middle.
When this is done, the image can be downloaded and be printed at the drugstore or wherever you go when you want to have your photos printed out.

The uses of AI generated artwork

 

AI generated art can be used for many things:
  1. it can be used for creating calendars and cards; I have already created the January page of one of my calendars with two prints (Winter in the forest); in addition to that I used images for some of my Christmas cards and will use them for birthday cards in 2023.
  2. it can be used as reference for traditional drawing and painting.
  3. it can be used for print on demand. I am the owner of a Zazzle shop, and a few days ago I created my first mug design with it - a baby rhino.

Framed Art



For I long time I had been looking for a way to display my art in my flat without hammering nails into the walls. A few days ago I found this frame. It is broad enough to put it on furniture, and the prints can be easily changed. The frame is not expensive - so I will buy another one or two.
