      @ntxdave;
      I think the problem roots in my English. I meant "Letters" (instead of the alphabet). I use the letters as a source of inspiration to produce forms. Then Pilou suggested use of AI image generators, that is kind of amazing but far from my intention. I am intended to make the audience to actively produce forms, from "letters" and I have done some as samples. I think when you observe your let me say watch, actively for 10 min, you will remember much much more compared to short glances for a year. This is the power of being active observer. So generating form is not what I am into. I am into active creativity and form generation.
      By the way what Pilou if suggesting is amazing also, although is not my cup of tea.

        << the letter "B", it iteratively removes those forms

        It's just question of regulates influence of the start image! ๐Ÿ˜‰

            So,
            Maybe I must change the topics?
            Any clue? what I have done is roughly 160 sketches + 80 pages of letters "designed" ( not all by me).

                OK guys - I finally get it. DUH - I am pretty dense. I, now, fully understand the influence of the alphabet being the inspiration for designs. Pilou, those are some wild/good images you shared.

                Majid, I appreciate what you have shared and hope it will lead me down a more artistic and creative path. ๐Ÿ‘

                  @ntxdave; AS a native speaker, may I ask you please your suggested title for this topic or my book? It is much appreciated if helping me with disambiguation, please.

                    I think the title you used on the Twilight Render forum (Alphabet Inspired Sketches) is right on. ๐Ÿ‘

                    Again, I feel kind of silly not understanding/getting what you were saying in the title of this thread but the other title is spot on IMO. I am also surprised that more people did not respond.

                      Thank you Dave for your contribution. It helps me to rectify the title of my "prospect e-book"! You did a great job as I think many wouldn't understand the content if I do not correct the title!

                        Glad my stupidity could help. ๐Ÿ˜‰ It will be interesting to see what your book is about.

                        BTW, I am trying to learn Krita. It looks like a good piece of software and I have watched several videos. I am struggling a little with the brushes and the way layers work. It is a little hard to watch the videos and remember everything or to pause and flip between the videos and the application. Any recommendations?

                          I am pretty sure you are smart. It was my fault that made it complicated and as you mentioned the topic on the twilight forum suits better.
                          Krita was a nightmare for me for the first two weeks. Then I slowly got familiar with it and rushes. The brush system is wonderful but I suggest not getting into it first. I started with very simple drills and tried to master the basics and tools. I use it as an image editor and also a digital painting tool. I have already shared what I have done using Krita.

                            What tools do you use (mouse, Wacom tablet, or others)?

                            Do you have any suggested courses/videos?

                            I have some basic problems:

                            • I am not a very good artist but I like to try
                            • Sometimes (sometimes often) I cannot get any good ideas (probably related to the previous comment)
                            • I would like to be able to combine things/thoughts like people like you and Pilou
                            • Lastly, I sometimes do not have enough patience in the learning process (maybe it is an aging problem ๐Ÿ˜ฎ )

                                It seems that Pilou has a bunch of mazing offers...! Thanks for sharing.
                                I am wondering what will happen in near future by implementing AI?

                                      Majid, Pilou

                                      I need some help. I am tyring to learn Krita but somehow I have really messed things up. When I try to draw an object, say a rectangle or elipse, when I click to end drawing the object, nothing is showing up. I have tried to change the color and no matter what I do, it does not show up. I cannot figure out what is messed up.

                                      Also, what dockers to you have set up in the app? How do you set up the default options for using the application?
