ahh living qualities

ahh~

this week i have been further using some AI text prompt to image generator tools in attempt to create an image that has a living quality. the cover image starts to show signs of life; the sphere eroding and green moss-like texture on the surface. the eroding texture bleeds up the image and begins to blur away due to the depth of field. the stone-like object in the foreground shining light on its corner gives a sense of realism. however when looking at the image as complete gives an obvious artificial aesthetic.
it is proving difficult to develop a framework evaluating each element and the entire composition as 'living'...
