Have you ever wanted to play around with famous artworks?
You can now expand the frame of a famous painting like Johannes Vermeer’s “Girl With a Pearl Earring,” add a dinosaur to Edward Hopper’s “Summer Evening” or incorporate fire, a UFO, and an alien in Leonardo da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa.”
Last week the artificial intelligence company OpenAI launched a user friendly tool called “Outpainting” that is part of DALL·E 2, “a new AI system that can create realistic images and art from a description in natural language.”
All you have to do is choose the art you’re interested in and then type whatever comes to mind which you want to see in the artwork. If you want to add apple pie and a shark to Claude Monet’s “The Water-Lily Pond,” you just need to type those words and the images will appear while the art will enlarge.
You can also experiment with photographs like the cover of The Beatles album “Abbey Road.”
If you’re interested in using “Outpainting,” you’ll have to sign up to get on the waiting list to use DALL·E 2 so you can then access “Outpainting.”
