A mythopoet, if such a term could hold the weight of failure & ambition, of stories stitched from the dust of forgotten gods & the cold bones of old worlds. My first graphic novel, Pantheon: Heterotopia, is both a labor & a lament. 2 more volumes followed

The results came back as two bizarre samples. Totally warped echoes of my original art.

So I upped the ante. Fed it a baseline, a reference drawing of mine straight outta Pantheon Volume II.

A simple prompt requesting the image of a warrior goddess, dark-skinned with a fiery red afro, pulling off the nihilistic shrug. That defiant ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ we've come to know & love. A low stakes experiment, a casual test of the machine.

Quick sketch from the other day.
Trying line work without pencils, with paint markers.
