midjourney v7 is here and while it seems to be a few steps behind chatgpt in terms of prompt understanding it still produces better aesthetics.

Here's an example of an initial experiment, replaying an old prompt.

#abstractart #midjourney #abstractlandscape

And here's one where I pushed the prompt a bit in the direction of landscape paintings.

#midjourney#abstractlandscape

And here's one where the colors are more opaque

#midjourney#abstractart

Another one where the black takes a bit more space

In this series, I toyed around with textures resembling lacquer. It's still a bit close to what seems to be one of the dominant color schemes of midjourney V6.1 (orange/pink) but I'm already auite satisfied with the compositions and textures.

More from the same series...

I mostly try to create images inspired by abstract art. But sometimes I'm also in the mood for creating schlocky fantasy images.

Here, I had been reading up on Artemisia Gentileschi, her life and works, and this inspired me to apply some Chiaroscuro styling.

Here's a series inspired by the rectangular patterns in some of Gerhard Richters "Abstraktes Bild". I mixed in aspects of burnt celluloid.

I went to Museum Barberini in Potsdam last weekend to see the Maurice de Vlaminck exhibition. I quite liked it! Especially the earlier works.

Afterwards I took a short tour through their collection of impressionist paintings. It's always a nice experience.

Another piece inspired by the works of Yoshitaka Amano #midjourney#abstractart#ai

Here, I was inspired by some adverts for an exhibition featuring works of Yoshitaka Amano I saw on insta.
