ArtistHybrid 50% animal 50% plant: grasshopper (Omocestus viridulus) x common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) Full width 16:9 pen-and-ink illustration filling the entire image to the edge of a hybrid common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) x grasshopper (Omocestus viridulus). Each green bean pod is a grasshopper: Many long string beans made of grasshoppers hang from the bean vine. The hybrid is growing in a well-tended vegetable plot, surrounded by other hybrid vegetables. The vegetable plot background as well as the hybrid creature are rendered in tiny, ornate zentangle and zendoodle patterning, executed with strongly visible technique marks, patterns of whimsical miniature curlicues, lines, dots and dashes, extremely closely spaced hatching and cross-hatching lines, great attention to detail and painstaking, scientific precision. The colors range from all shades of lively green through olive to brown, with yellow highlights, executed with very high color contrast. The fully fused hybrid plant-creature is shown close up, with the background fading out of view. Astonishing, singular hybrid, extremely detailed, intricate illustration.
Peas, beans, grasshoppers - it's all the same to AI.
