Since ancient times, drawing and painting have been an art related to the artist's ability to express their ideas.<\/p>\n

I was very fortunate to be a good artist from a young age. That has helped me a lot in my work as a graphic designer. Today, artificial intelligence offers new possibilities to those who don't know how to draw<\/strong> but want to unleash their imagination using one of the oldest tools for creating art: words. Today it's possible to develop your own artistic style without knowing how to draw or paint<\/strong>, as we can see with an interesting channel on threads.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Japanese artist Gata-Kun (@gatakun_artscape<\/a>) is very sincere: \"I don't know how to draw, so I draw with my feelings.\"<\/em><\/strong> This AI user, with just over 2,300 followers on that social network, claims to be \"creating a \"spiritual home\" with generative AI and a worldview<\/strong>\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

His images have a very defined style. Twilight landscapes are rendered with soft colors, evoking dreams and melancholic scenery<\/strong>, showing us Japanese cities or fantastical worlds, with watercolor strokes combined with fine ink and a certain influence of Japanese anime. His illustrations caught my attention from the first moment I saw them<\/strong>, and have ended up leading me to use my threads.com<\/a> account to discover new artists who are currently using artificial intelligence as a paintbrush<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Obviously, some people won't see the merit in that, since after all, it's AI that creates the final illustration<\/strong>. However, I think this opens up a new dimension of art that we shouldn't dismiss. Many people have vivid imaginations and are very skilled with words<\/strong>, but they've never had the ability to draw or paint because they're not good at handling a brush or pencil.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Today, AI offers these individuals a means to translate their ideas into illustrations.<\/strong> In Gata-Kun's case, AI serves to create what he defines as \"places that bring you back to your heart.\" Obviously, the work of a traditional illustrator will always have more merit<\/strong>, but I believe we shouldn't underestimate art created with digital tools, tools that have been used by all kinds of artists for many years. Here are some more examples of Gata-Kun's art<\/strong>; you can see other works of his on his threads.com channel<\/a> and on his Instagram channel<\/a>.<\/p>\n
