I used an AI art generator 2025 prompts to draft a city where gravity is reversed The AI gave a dreamlike layout with floating towers I then painted a large canvas by hand with acrylics and ink to chase that weightless feel and scanned back in to push textures

An AI art generator 2025 prompts idea showed a forest where trees are glass and light I built a small display with clear acrylic rods and translucent leaves shot it with a macro lens and then layered the result in Photoshop to keep that glass glow

Surreal sea scene from an AI art generator 2025 prompts produced waves that turn into metal ribbons I created a mixed media piece with watercolor and metal leaf and used a light projection to blend the digital draft with the physical piece

I fed an AI art generator 2025 prompts that mapped sounds to color and shapes I then built a sculpture using foam and resin and projected the digital mood onto it merging digital concept with tangible craft
