ArtLook: Your Photos, Reimagined in Any Art Style
We were wondering what else we could offer you, our beloved photo editing enthusiasts. And then it hit us – ArtLook! So let’s dive into what it is and how it works.
This artistic baby uses a mix of seriously advanced tech called generative AI and style transfer. Sounds fancy, right? That’s because it is!
Our generative AI, which operates based on text prompts and powers all our features, works in tandem with style transfer technology in ArtLook. This collaboration doesn’t just create a new image from scratch (which generative AI can do solo); it recreates your portrait in a specific drawing style. How?
Style transfer takes the visual style from one image and applies it to another. Imagine a Van Gogh painting, with his distinctive brushstrokes and colors, or a vibrant Pixar animation filled with lively and colorful characters. Style transfer extracts these stylistic elements and blends them with your portrait. The result? Your face, reimagined in the style of a famous artwork or animation.
