This project was created with the prompt of designing and illustrating a fantastical creature from three real animals, and then generating an AI background to complement the illustration. The purpose of this was to gain a better understanding of how to use AI technology, and formulate a prompt with an adequate result. The illustration of the creature is completely done by me, while the backgrounds were made using Adobe AI.
Yaguaruma, 2025
The animals I chose were the jaguar, shark, and mandarin dragonet. All came together to form the "Yaguaruma," a river-dwelling predator native to the Amazon rainforest.
