Die Funktion »Generatives Erweitern« für Vektorgrafiken steht in der aktuellen Beta-Version von #Adobe #Illustrator bereit.
Der Ablauf ist einfach:
• optional zuerst Zeichenfläche auf Zielgröße bringen,
• die Ziel-Fläche mit den Anfassern anpassen,
• das generative Erweitern mit oder ohne Prompt starten.
Bei meinem Versuch sah der Ergebnis zuerst seltsam aus. Das lag jedoch an transparenten Flächen und nicht ausgeblendeten Ebenen.
Die Ebenenpalette zeigt, dass die Funktion non-destruktiv ist.

Screenshot Nr. 1 in Adobe Illustrator Beta: Die angeschnittene Grafik zeigt eine sehr einfache Blume mit Blättern. Für das Generative Erweitern wird die Fläche auf Wunsch vergrößert.
Screenshot Nr. 2 in Adobe Illustrator Beta: Mehrere Variationen, die das Programm für das generative Erweitern vorschlägt.
Screenshot Nr. 3 in Adobe Illustrator Beta: Alle Objekte in der Grafik sind ausgewählt. Da die Originalgrafik, die transparente Elemente enthält, noch nocht ausgeblendet ist, erscheint das Ergebnis auf den ersten Blick fehlerhaft.
Screenshot Nr. 4 in Adobe Illustrator Beta: Das Ebenenbedienfeld zeigt das »Generative Objekt« und die »Ursprüngliche Grafik«. Tatsächlich ist das Original in einer weiteren Unterebene nochmals vorhanden. Im Test ist diese ausgeblendet, weil transparente Objekte sonst das Ergebnis stören.

Soul People series
Title: Heaven Sent

SOUL: the immaterial essence, animating principle, or actuating cause of an individual life; the moral and emotional nature of human beings. (source: Merriam-Webster Dictionary) I watch the local and national news too much. As a result, I am witness to people facing serious life challenges that are beyond my own measured world. To me, the Soul People series reflects aspects of intrinsic humanity, including the suffering, alienation, confusion as well as the quest for joy, peace and understanding that people experience in their day to day lives. Depending upon the "soul" within, they deal with these challenges differently. In these images I am trying to explore and visualize what that might look like.

Against a purple night sky blazing with the stars of the milky way galaxy, a Child's face - just the eyes, tip of nose and lips and general shape of the face. In one eye, a far distant cosmic burst of light.

INNER MONSTERS
Inner Monsters don't necessarily look like "real" monsters. They are part of that constant chatter going on in the background of our own minds, shaping our view of the world. They can appear in a variety of forms, from human, animal, monster-like, even as plants! Most of us... ahem... keep our inner beasties tucked "safely" in the closet, hoping they won't decide to reveal themselves at inopportune times, causing all manner of embarrassing moments, like sudden extreme shyness, unexplained crying jags, overwhelming crankiness, or laughing out loud for no apparent reason, among others. Sound familiar?
The solution is (drum roll please...) to MEET your inner monsters, SEEK to understand them, EMBRACE them as yours, and then LEARN about yourself through them. Bring them out of your personal inner-verse and set them free!

Painting of a shy looking young girl. With a patterned dress, small pearl buttons and a scalloped collar, she glances shyly to the side, with a small smile. Highly textured patterns on the wall match the patterns on her dress.

Paper Faces - The Human Psyche: PARANOIA
FACES. We all have them. They fascinate me. Expressions in particular - from subtle to extreme.
OLD PAPER. These too share qualities of human expression. From long ago handwritten notes, aged newspapers and maps to worn paper stained with time. In this series of prints, I combine them to create whimsical "stories" about the nature of being human.

Gorgeous Monsters & Their Pets
Welcome to my new interview series. I am the official human spokesperson for the Guardian Monster Guild, editor of the "Monster Times & Review" and author of the glamorous tell-all book, "What Monsters Want". These are hard-won credentials that I have worked tirelessly to obtain. As an ordinary human being, entering the realm of Monsterdom requires a rigorous determination, and an ego that can survive all manner of taunts, threats and indignation. I have endured countless nips, pokes and licks from numerous monsters whose intent, it seems, was to provoke me into giving up. I have proved them wrong! NOTE: This latest set of interviews on monster pets is for human eyes only and includes interviews with a select group from the Gorgeous Monsters Society. (This is the name they give themselves.) Here we discuss their feelings of unabashed adoration for their beloved pets as well as their care and feeding.

Meet Lord Shrouder, of the Runbludic tribe & his Leaping Lollies: Ishney, Bothart, Rubels and Pamela.

An olive shaped, leaf covered creature sits sedately on a couple of baroque stools, while his four beloved pets play around him. Happy-go-lucky purple beasties with a layered pink mane frolic and tumble into trouble. Their avid curiosity and willingness to bite any and all things with their rows of tiny sharp teeth, suggest chaos may be just around the corner, as one thinks his owners tail looks downright tasty.

into the garden - deep summertime
This is the first in a series of paintings that illuminate the transformative beauty of the natural world. To visually express how total immersion into the deep greenness of gardens and wild spaces can create a profound sense of peace; restore wonder; and generate calm in an increasingly chaotic world.

Sleepy Monster in a Teacup
Humans aren't the only ones who enjoy a spot of tea now and again. Little monsters have been know to slip quietly into kitchens when no one is around and sneak a sip of two of freshly brewed sweetness. Alas, some of these tiny creatures may become so enamored with the tea, that they sip themselves silly and fall into a state of euphoria, causing all manner of behavior.

Monsters have babies too.
Baby monsters are even harder to find than the elusive "baby" pigeon. Very few folks can say that they've seen them, let alone created their portraits. I have been lucky. As you might imagine, monster parents can be a bit protective. Mothers in particular. They consider us (humans) more than a bit strange and potentially dangerous. It took most of my free time, lots of monster "treats" and carefully followed Monster Etiquette to befriend just a few of them. Even then, I felt a bit nervous and on edge as I made sketches of their most beloved offspring. It is always a good idea to remind oneself that monsters are ultimately unpredictable creatures, and should be given proper respect at all times.

One teeny, solitary baby stands precariously on Moms scaly leg.

Against a brilliant blue sky, with just a hint of mountains in the distance, a teeny baby monster trembles with uncertainty on its mothers scaly leg, grasping her long sharp claw for balance. It nervously stares (at me) with large bulging eyes, while the other hand is clamped firmly in its mouth. Bright scales of chartreuse, vivid orange and crimson red cover the body of this wee creature, accompanied by slender candy-cane-like curved horns atop its bald green head. I find it endearingly adorable. NOTE: This description created especially for my lovely blind friend, Georgiana.
