This week <i>In the NVIDIA Studio<\/i>, discover how AI-assisted painting is bringing a new level of inspiration to the next generation of artists.<\/p>\n<p>San Francisco-based creator <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/karenxcheng\/\">Karen X. Cheng<\/a> is on the forefront of using AI to design amazing visuals. Her innovative work produces eye-catching effects to social media videos for brands like Adobe, Beats by Dre and Instagram.<\/p>\n<p>Cheng\u2019s work bridges the gap between emerging technologies and creative imagery, and her inspiration can come from anywhere. \u201cI usually get ideas when I\u2019m observing things \u2014 whether that\u2019s taking a walk or scrolling in my feed and seeing something cool,\u201d she said. \u201cThen, I\u2019ll start jotting down ideas and sketching them out. I\u2019ve got a messy notebook full of ideas.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/CdLoSFLjDhv\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\">\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>When inspiration hits, it\u2019s important to have the right tools.

Canvas is powered by the <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.nvidia.com\/blog\/2022\/03\/01\/what-is-gaugan-ai-art-demo\/\">GauGAN2<\/a> AI model and accelerated by Tensor Cores found exclusively on RTX GPUs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI never had much drawing skill before, so I feel like I have art superpowers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The app uses AI to interpret basic lines and shapes, translating them into realistic landscape images and textures. Artists of all skill levels can use this advanced AI to quickly turn simple brushstrokes into realistic images, speeding up concept exploration and allowing for increased iteration, while freeing up valuable time to visualize ideas.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m excited to use NVIDIA Canvas to be able to sketch out the exact landscapes I\u2019m looking for,\u201d said Cheng. \u201cThis is the perfect sketch to communicate your vision to an art director or location scout.
