Exactly, Lannie! I also hope the images in the story helped answer the question you raised earlier about how I blend analog drawing with generative AI. My process starts with hand-drawn sketches and prompts for the AI models, using both words and visual input. From there, I experiment—merging my own creations with AI-generated ones, tweaking prompts, and creating a back-and-forth exchange between human and AI. It’s far from linear.

After a long break from drawing, I’ve rediscovered how fulfilling it is. Now, I mix my artwork—photos, sketches, and digital designs—with AI models to push their boundaries beyond just text-based prompts. It’s been a much more dynamic approach, and drawing by hand adds so much joy to the process.
