I use a combination of art noveau and illuminated scripts. You can use DeepAI for free or ChatGPT. I then plug in the prompt, the colors I want, the symbols, etc. And BAM. I get my sweet, sweet image! 😅I am currently compiling my first "visual" poetry book in this style. It is really a fun thing to do, or was. Now for the hard part of picking an order! yikes!

I like where it ends. The emphasis on the violence initially becomes rebirth. Good juxtaposition.
