  12. I am slowly getting to my YCH series! It's taking me a while but I'll get there Part of my learning how to art again, how to use my tablet all over for art because I'm so, so rusty and how to use the AI generators as well to ask for specific things that I might need, using a combination of painting, stock images and AI generated pieces. it's much fun! And trying to show this is how to use the whole AI thing too, as a tool to enhance your art and anything else you might need it for. And I had fun working this one out and spending ages getting little bits just right, painting in details and all! I do miss doing this too Created from purchased stocks, AI Tools & a lot of painting.
