Maneki Neko's World: Nouveau

This piece by Maneki Neko is part of a series of an open edition for each month of 2023. It was created through experimentation with the AI tool Stable Diffusion in combinations of prompts and settings to produce hundreds of floral synthographs. The best of these images were curated and upscaled with Stable Diffusion to bring out even more details and finished with color and fine detail editing in Photoshop.
