Quote from his bio; "
We're looking for disciples. Young men and women ...but who will be all along and afterwards the kind of extended family that everyone should have. ... and want to "put down roots" at the same time;who will do exactly as their leader commands" Does the name Jonestown sound familiar. :~Simply Elegant Designs JimmyRopes Designs

you haven't yet. Ceaselessly and vocally working outside forum guidelines is not thinking outside the box. You vocally and ceaselessly demand we obey your wishes and think YOUR way. You're far more boxed in than you care to think. AI has advanced, but your system has not. The one problem with cults is that they tend to suicide when they realize the dreams have been missed. When AI is achieved, and it will be, it will be through thinking outside your super-tiny box. I just hope you don't ask your followers to pass on with you. :sigh:

But did you like the paintings?
You mean using google images and smudging the result? You are the only person I know who can steal other peoples images, thumb the color around a bit and brag that you created a new work of art. And that it is some great achievement. Why not draw your wife's image into the Mona Lisa or something "original" like that. (Thomas Crown Affair, 1999) At least that would take a minor amount of skill.

Pictures! there is no paint involved. Nice attempt to imply some artistic merit where there is clearly none.

Clearly? None? Try this test. Have the Cal Monet paint a picture of something for you. Pick a good one, one that you like or think is unique or moving or distinctive in some way. Print it off. Then go to Google Images and using the same search phrase, locate the original (it should be on the first or second page and may not have the same proportions). Print that also. Now hang them both in a public place and ask passers-by what they think (without explaining the procedure). You'll find, as we have, that most people consider the Cal Monet's work both interesting and artistic (ie, having artistic merit); and you may even find some people asking for a copy!
No I will not. It is not up to me to prove the process you use to generate these images is artistic. You cannot call it a painting unless paint was used to create it. You cannot claim artistic merit where there is no artist. You love to play with words and are obviously pretty good at it. Using Monet's name is very clever but ultimatly insulting to the great artist.

I know I was; and I did!
Figures... and no, I take (with a camera), paint (with brush or digital brush), and create my own prints from my own originals. But that would be... thinking outside the box. You might try it sometime. I also make jewelry, play music (well, partially, I play, but still learning), learning to play the drum, do paper mache, clay sculpture, pencil, pen and ink, scratch board. My aunt does oil and oil pastels, I have several of hers. I prefer originals, because there is no theft, no copying. I don't have to steal a photo from Peter Jones and print it for my wall, I will buy a print from the photographer, or better yet, take my own for the challenge, for the thrill. I'll climb into the caves and take the photos, rather than google and frame them and act like it was an achievement. If you want an achievement, try actually doing something original, doing something outside the box. Such as you claim you want to do, but always fall short. There is a grand world out there, and googling for the images misses out on all the fun, especially if you claim it to be yours.

do you also inform them that you stole the image before you smudged it up a bit to be their print? or do you leave that little detail out?

The method is the same as that a human painter: look at the original, dab at the canvas in a congruent way, repeat until satisfied.

Were any of the renderings pleasing to your eye?
What pictures have you used, printed for yourself or others? Have you made any money from these prints?
