Prompt

((A man engaged in the act of smoking a thick, dark pipe, his fingers delicately positioned around it. His attire is formal, featuring a light beige suit jacket over a white shirt with a black bow tie.):1.9) (Francis Picabia:1.9) (KURT SCHWITTERS:1.9) ((Create an artistic representation of a man in a stylized portrait. He wears a black hat with a modern, geometric design. Half of his face is obscured by a colorful mask featuring green, orange, and blue shapes, along with a gray circular lens resembling a mechanical eye. His skin tone is light, and he has sharp facial features with an angular jawline. His eyes are strikingly blue, reflecting a sense of intrigue):1) (The background is soft and abstract, with curved shapes in light hues enhancing the overall style. A thin plume of smoke curls upwards from the pipe, blending into the background. The composition is intriguing and avant-garde, echoing themes of mystery and modernity.):1) (detailing, bringing it to a masterpiece)

More about The Smoking Automaton: A Dadaist Reflection

A surreal portrait of a man whose face is partially concealed by a bizarre mechanical mask. He calmly smokes a pipe, with smoke spiraling into the air. The fusion of human and machine evokes a whimsical yet contemplative atmosphere, blending vintage elegance with industrial abstraction.

Artistic Statement: Inspired by the Dadaist movements of Francis Picabia and Kurt Schwitters, this piece melds human identity with mechanical abstraction. The mechanical mask, geometric forms, and pipe create a striking contrast between organic life and industrialism, exploring themes of absurdity, duality, and the mechanization of human thought.

The base image has been made in NightCafeStudio with the following prompt: "(Francis Picabia:1.9), (Spy:1.9), (Smoking PIPE:1.4), (MASQUERADE:1.5), Encaustic, Volumetric Lighting, ABSTRACT, (KURT SCHWITTERS:1)"

The "hand + pipe complex" was a huge "charpie" totally aberrant, even when the DDG prompt was applied. Then I had to inpaint this part a lot.
