Flower Forerunner Oiran
Flower Forerunner Oiran is a digital artwork that presents a female portrait rooted in Japanese culture. The composition combines flowers, gentle femininity and circular harmony with a steampunk mood. Separate images of the figure and the background were generated with artificial intelligence tools and then merged by hand in Photoshop. Shapes, colors and lighting were adjusted, while accessories, patterns and highlights were added manually. Goggles hide the eyes of the figure, so each viewer can interpret the image freely.
