As a kid, I was a voracious reader. Books were my escape, and I especially enjoyed reading about characters (the female protagonists were always fascinating) who were young like me and became the heroines or heroes of their own stories. Through these incredible literary adventures, I was able to explore worlds very different from my own.

Now that I’m an adult, I look back fondly on those exciting moments in literature that have remained with me until today.

Here are some of the AI-generated images from my newest digital collection entitled: “Once Upon A Cyberpunk Time…” I hope that you enjoy these popular literary icons' “Millennium Makeovers” as much as I did creating them!

Having been a freelance photographer and photo editor for several years, I was excited last fall to learn about a new digital creation process through AI. With this tool, I could actually create scenarios that I'd never imagined were possible in real life.

After a long session of brainstorming one day (a frequent process for me as a creator), I thought about those iconic literary characters from my past, and I decided to engage in a little experiment: What would these memorable characters look like as modern-day, millennial cyberpunk kids? The results were astounding to me.

My process as an AI digital creator is a bit different than the standard process: I not only use the AI program to develop ideas, but I also do additional editing to enhance the images, and make them more interesting.

While the original AI images were satisfactory, some of them needed an extra bit of adjustment (different backgrounds, additional color/lighting, plus other elements) to breathe extra life into them.

I'm so happy Harriet is here. I grew up with the book and only realized later that it wasn't as popular as other familiar children's book characters.
