AI | Union Jack | Sunrise | Free Artwork | Digital Expressionist Style

In this day and age, a good piece of wall art can be created from a number of different sources. Of these, one of the most hotly discussed has to be the use of AI, or Artificial Intelligence in the production of art. Having started to experiment with this myself to find out exactly what could be done with the minimal of technological knowledge, I discovered it to be surprisingly easy. In it's simplest form, once set up, I simply chose a style and entered some keywords and let the AI do the rest. 

Let me say at the outset that I love all forms of expressionist art, and that it forms the basis for many of the wall art projects that I get involved in. Expressionist wall art often provides a bold, bright and colourful centrepiece to any room. Therefore, having decided on the style, the keywords that I went for were Union Jack and sunrise colours, then set the AI to do it's work.. After several versions were produced, I had soon chosen one, and after tweaking it further to give a finished product that I liked, the result was an expressionist style oil painting, with the effect of bold, thick layers of colourful paint.

For this piece of wall art, before you download and save, please note that I have further enhanced the image and layered slightly, and be aware that some slight resizing and cropping may have occurred (and that you may need to adjust to fit your print medium).

Expressionist Art

Expressionist art is a modern art movement that emerged in the early 20th century in Germany. It is characterized by the artist's subjective, emotional response to the world, rather than a realistic or objective representation of it.

Expressionist artists sought to express their emotions, feelings, and ideas through bold colors, exaggerated forms, and distorted shapes. They often employed highly individualistic and unconventional techniques to convey their personal vision, rather than adhere to traditional academic styles.

There were two main branches of Expressionism: Die Brücke (The Bridge) and Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider). Die Brücke was founded in Dresden in 1905, and its members included Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Emil Nolde, and Max Pechstein. Der Blaue Reiter was formed in Munich in 1911, and its members included Wassily Kandinsky, Franz Marc, and August Macke.

Expressionist art had a significant impact on the development of modern art, and its influence can be seen in many different art forms, including painting, sculpture, literature, theater, and film. Some of the most well-known expressionist artists include Edvard Munch, Vincent van Gogh, and Egon Schiele.  

Artificial Intelligence to produce art

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been used to produce art in various forms, such as paintings, music, and poetry. This is typically achieved using deep learning techniques, where an AI model is trained on a large dataset of examples, such as images or music, and then generates new examples based on what it has learned. 

While AI-generated art can sometimes be impressive, it is still a controversial topic as some people believe that true creativity requires human consciousness and intention.

Image Resolution

The image resolution is normally stated in pixels. However, what defines the physical size of any image you have as a download is in which format you would like to reproduce the image and therefore the dpi (dots per inch) required. 

For example, to use an image on a website, 72dpi is optimal. However, to print in medium quality, 150dpi (minimum) is required. That said, for the best print quality, and that used by most commercial printers, then 300dpi is needed.

To put this in some perspective, an image of 2000x2000 pixels would give the following sizes.....

At 72dpi this would be 27.7 x 27.7 inches (705 x 705 mm)

At 150dpi this would be 13.3 x 13.3 inches (338 x 338 mm)

At 300dpi this would be 6.7 x 6.7 inches (169 x 169 mm)

Therefore, as a general rule (in dimensional terms), and a quick reference guide, each 1000 pixels is equal to 

13.8 inches (352.7 mm) at 72dpi 

or 

6.66 inches (169.3 mm) at 150dpi 

or 

3.33 inches (84.6 mm) at 300dpi.
