Painters & illustrators
Composition and studies through to a print on canvas.
AI as a studio tool, for visual & 3D artists
More room for creativity, more ways to craft.
Hands-on AI as a creative medium for painters, illustrators, and 3D artists. Generate and refine, train a model on your own style, build your own tools, and take it all the way to a physical canvas, with your authorship and rights intact.
Hands-on, with real tools. In English or German.
The idea
A medium, and a tool you can build yourself.
This isn't AI making art instead of you. It's AI as a brush and a collaborator you direct, from first composition, to the texture on a 3D model, to a print on canvas you can sign.
And because the day is built on Claude, you don't only use tools, you can design your own: custom pipelines, batch workflows, even a model trained on your own body of work.
Who it's for
If you make things you can see.
Digital & concept artists
Ideation, iteration, and production at speed.
3D & sculpture
Generate, sculpt, and texture in three dimensions.
Designers & makers
Generative systems, patterns, and one-off pieces.
Photographers
Editing, restoration, and image-to-art transforms.
New-media & generative
Build the system that makes the work.
In the studio
What you'll actually make.
Hands-on with the tools artists are using now, plus the part most workshops skip: building your own. You direct it; the vision and the final call stay yours.
Image generation
Take a concept to composition and a finished image.
You direct it; the vision and the edits stay yours.
A model in your style
Train a model on your own body of work.
Your data, your style, not scraped from other artists.
Onto canvas
From file to giclée print or a pen-plotter / robotic paint output.
Digital craft becomes a physical, signable piece.
3D generation
Turn text or images into 3D models to build on.
A base mesh to refine, not a finished sculpture.
3D texture & paint
Texture, paint, and detail your models in three dimensions.
Speeds the grind; the art direction stays yours.
Build your own tools
Use Claude to design custom pipelines and ComfyUI workflows.
Tools shaped to your process, not the other way round.
Refine & finish
Upscale, inpaint, and retouch to final quality.
Finishing power; you decide what counts as done.
Bring it into motion
Animate stills and pieces into moving work.
Movement as a medium; you set the rhythm.
On your terms
Authorship & rights, kept intact.
Generative art raises real questions, training data, style, ownership. We put them first, not in the fine print, and help you work in a way you can stand behind.
You keep authorship
AI is the instrument. The work, the art direction, and the credit stay yours, end to end.
Train on your work, not others'
We focus on models built from your own art, not data scraped from other artists.
Label what's AI-made
The EU AI Act asks for AI-generated or edited images to be marked. We show you how, simply.
The copyright question, straight
We're clear about what's settled and what's still contested, including the debate artists are rightly angry about.
Plain-language guidance, not legal advice. For licensing or disputes, talk to a specialist.
