Digital painting
Digital painting mainly refers to the process of creating paintings on computer software based on computers or graphic tables. Through pixel simulation, digital brushes in digital software (see the software in Digital painting) can imitate traditional painting paints and tools, such as oil, acrylic acid, pastel, charcoal, and airbrush. Users of the software can also customize the pixel size to achieve the unique visual effect (customized brushes).

AI picture generator art
1960 早期作画（草线图），引用AI art内容总结. The image generator is based on the generation adversarial network (GAN), which is a machine learning framework that allows two "algorithms" to compete with each other and iterate. It is usually used to let the computer find the best solution by itself. It can be used to generate pictures that have visual effects similar to traditional fine art. The essential idea of image generators is that people can use text descriptions to let AI convert their text into visual picture content. Anyone can turn their language into a painting through a picture generator. And some artists can use image generators to generate their paintings instead of drawing from scratch, and then they use the generated paintings as a basis to improve them and finally create new digital paintings. This greatly reduces the threshold of painting and challenges the traditional definition of painting art.

Generation Process
Generally, the user can set the input, and the input content includes detailed picture content that the user wants. For example, the content can be a scene's content, characters, weather, character relationships, specific items, etc. It can also include selecting a specific artist style, screen style, image pixel size, brightness, etc. Then picture generators will return several similar pictures generated according to the input (generally, 4 pictures are given now). After receiving the results generated by picture generators, the user can select one picture as the result he wants, or let the generator redraw and return to new pictures.

In addition, it is worth mentioning the whole process: it is also similar to the "generator" and "discriminator" modules in GANs.

Awards and recognition
In 2018, the artificial intelligence art auction was held at Christie's auction house in New York. The auction price of an artificial intelligence work "Edmond de Bellamy" created by a collective in Paris named "Obvious" was $432500, far exceeding its original estimate.

At the end of August 2022, a person named Allen Jason won the first prize in the Colorado State Fair's fine art competition through the digital art work "Théâtre D'opéra Spatial " made from a AI picture generator Midjourney.
