Can you help with character consistency in AI image generation?
Yes. Maintaining the same character’s look across multiple AI-generated images is one of my specialties – and also one of AI’s trickier challenges. I use advanced prompt techniques, and creative workflows to keep a character’s defining features steady from image to image. Current generative tools (like Midjourney) don’t have perfect memory for characters, but I’ve developed imaginative solutions – from leveraging Flux to Hey Gen to Open Art – to achieve remarkable coherence. In short, I can definitely help weave a visual thread so your AI-generated characters remain recognizably consistent and cohesive throughout your project.
Can you help me with my AI-project?
Absolutely. I love empowering students and creative learners on their AI journeys. If you have an AI-related project, I can mentor you through the process – from brainstorming innovative ideas to understanding the tools and techniques needed to execute them. I’ve taught hundreds of students of all backgrounds, so I can adapt to your curriculum’s needs, helping clarify complex concepts and suggesting creative approaches. My goal is to help you shine by deepening your understanding of generative AI and guiding you to produce work that is both original and insightful. Consider me a collaborative partner in taking your project from a blank page to a polished presentation.
What do I need to get started with learning AI art?
Getting started with AI art requires much less than you might think – mostly curiosity and an internet connection. You’ll need a computer or laptop and access to the internet, since our lessons are conducted online (we usually connect via Zoom for screen-sharing). For the art tools themselves, I’ll help you with all the setup: for example, Midjourney (our primary AI image tool), we’ll get you signed up there and discuss subscription options. You don’t need any fancy hardware or prior software knowledge. Essentially, bring your imagination and willingness to learn – I’ll guide you through the rest, from installing the right apps to navigating settings and crafting your first prompts. With just a few basic setup steps and an open mind, you’ll be ready to turn words into visuals and begin creating AI art.
Do I need any prior art or tech experience to learn AI art with Cy?
Not at all. No prior art or coding experience is required to begin your AI art journey here. My teaching approach is welcoming to absolute beginners while still enriching for those with some background. I’ve designed my lessons for everyone from enthusiasts and students to professional artists and business owners. This means if you’re a complete novice, we’ll start with the fundamentals (I’ll walk you through every step, assuming no prior knowledge). And if you do have art/design or tech experience, we’ll build on that to push into advanced creative techniques. Generative AI is a new frontier accessible to anyone with curiosity – you bring the imagination, I’ll bring the expertise. Together, we’ll unlock your creative potential, regardless of your starting point.
Which AI platforms and tools do you use and teach?
I work with a wide range of AI platforms to suit different creative goals. My primary canvas is Midjourney for text-to-image and text-to-video generation, where I’m an expert prompter and instructor. I also use and teach ChatGPT (for AI-driven writing, ideation, and prompt assistance) and I incorporate tools like Runway ML for AI video and multimedia, as well as Pika Labs for animation and even face-swapping techniques. In addition, I’m familiar with Leonardo.ai, Open Art, Flux, Suno, Hey Gen, Eleven Labs, Hume.AI, Kling, Veo 3, and likely more by the time your read this. In our sessions, I’ll introduce you to the tools that best fit your needs – whether you’re looking to create vivid images, compelling text, or experimental AI art forms. Rest assured, I stay up-to-date with the latest AI creative tech, so you’ll be learning on the cutting edge in a way that’s accessible and exciting.
Can I record our sessions for personal review?
Yes, you’re welcome to record our sessions for your own personal review. Learning AI art involves a lot of new information and creative techniques, and having a recording can be a great way to revisit what we covered at your own pace. I understand that sometimes a concept or demo might click on the second viewing, so I encourage students to re-watch our sessions if it helps. The only thing I ask is that any recordings remain private and for your eyes only – this keeps our one-on-one session comfortable and respects the personal nature of the mentoring. With that in mind, feel free to hit record (I’m happy to pause briefly so you can set it up) and replay our lessons whenever you need a refresher or a spark of inspiration.
How many people can I bring to a private lesson or consultation?
My standard private lessons are one-on-one, meaning it’s typically just you and me for the most focused learning experience. That said, I’m flexible if you have a friend or a small team who wants to join in. For an intimate session, you can bring along another person (or two at most) – just let me know in advance so I can ensure the session is structured to engage everyone. I generally recommend keeping the group small (no more than 3 people total) so that each participant gets plenty of attention and hands-on guidance. If you’re interested in a larger group workshop or a corporate training session, we can certainly arrange a customized session to accommodate that at an extra cost. The key is that everyone involved is enthusiastic to learn; I’ll handle the rest, making sure the lesson is informative and enjoyable for all.
Can I book a custom AI art commission?
Absolutely — I offer custom AI art commissions and would love to bring your idea to life. You can indeed book a commission where we collaborate on creating unique AI-generated art tailored to your vision. As a professional Midjourney artist, I’ve created everything from character concepts to surreal landscapes, so no idea is too bold or whimsical. The process is personal and flexible: you can be involved at every step, giving feedback as I generate and refine images, or you can sit back and let me work my magic based on your brief. We’ll communicate closely to ensure the final artwork captures exactly what you imagined (and hopefully even pleasantly surprises you). To get started, simply reach out through my site’s contact info, and we’ll discuss your concept, style preferences, and any details to kick off your bespoke AI art creation.
How are your prints made?
Each print is crafted to transform digital art into a gallery-quality physical masterpiece. I begin by using AI (like Midjourney) to create a high-resolution image, often enhancing it with upscaling tools for maximum detail. The artwork is then produced by a Printful partner as a giclée print on premium canvas, using richly pigmented, fade-resistant inks for vibrant, long-lasting color. The canvas is stretched by hand over a solid wood frame (1.25″ deep), so it arrives ready to hang with an elegant, professional finish. Every print is made on demand just for you, which means it’s only created once you order – this ensures careful craftsmanship and helps reduce waste from bulk printing. In short, our prints merge technology and tradition: the imaginative power of AI-generated imagery, rendered with the quality of fine art printing to bring a touch of modern magic to your space. The orders are fulfilled by printful an internationally recognised POD platform.
