Helping Autistic Children Make Smart Passive Income

My motivation is to help other individuals with autism learn various skills and abilities to become successful in their craft, and by using that craft, create other opportunities to thrive together in an all inclusive physical and digital space that we can learn together as well as make smart passive income in our work.One of the processes and tools within said method is using AI or (LLM) Large Language Models.Using AI as a refining tool for one step of creation rather than having it generate the whole process is what I'm talking about.I drew some quick sketches an had AI interpret my artwork of what I envisioned with the quick sketch.Here are the examples I made and gave to AI with minimal prompts. I just let AI interpret the drawing. The results are interesting.

This was all done within the same channel
I intentionally made the quick sketch fast and difficult to interpret, yet it did an interesting job.
It also does orthographic views as well from one side to another, so if you draw a character in one view say the front view, and want to have LLM make another orthographic view from the side, it does this one step process in Gemini really well.

A concern one could ask is well those introduced to art could miss out on the fundamentals of said process; which I agree with. Yet I would like to show the whole process and how AI can be used as a tool for various applications.My desire to use this process mostly comes down to helping autistic children who have dreams to make characters they draw in one orthographic view be able to quickly export a character sheet that I can sculpt in 3D in Blender and Zbrush with the Refinement Tool process to make a STL character we can 3D Print to paint and work within their other artwork that will match other elements such as a painting, a poster, matching swag, etc that helps these kids who are struggling already have a way to make an income.I want to build a fundraising building and gallery that allows kids who wouldn't otherwise have the ability to make smart passive income, have that ability. I have autism as well as an adult, and there's a lot I can do, but a lot I'm still not able to do very well.

The Whole Process of Creativity

I want to show kids and adults the whole process. I want to teach kids and adults how to draw with triangles, circles, and squares; which help them develop their fundamentals towards learning to make and invent new ideas.

Learning to either take a photo they want to practice with and then learning various skills to help them create a digital painting with various tools takes time and patience. With time they can develop and create beautiful artwork.

As one learns, and as we work together, we can actually help each other in the process. Perhaps one individual is good at drawing, another painting, another photography, another logos, etc. By working in synergy together as knights of the round table we help each other, and learn from one another while trying to solve problems in said learning.

But i'm not superman. I can do some things, yet I want to help others find success in their lives. And children with autism are really struggling to make ends meet. They basically have a limited to no future aside from living with their parents, or grandparents or caregivers.I went to The Art Institute of Seattle to get a job and work to sustain my life in Media Arts and Animation. Yet the whole school couldn't help students find those opportunities.The whole system backfired and went under. I was there on ArtStation when my content was scraped as well. I had to learn things like make my own website, and adapt to the change.Ive learned to be more patient with myself. Enjoy the process. Yet I have a lot to learn.For most of my life I have worked for myself doing small odd jobs, and finally started my own business.

All artwork above was created without AI assistance.

This process above is just a small shortcut to help individuals and families understand that technology is here to help us survive in this world. We can do a lot with a little, especially in design.Within music, art, storytelling, games, and dance. Which are all things that I have been doing most of my life as a child into my adulthood really helped me learn to be more patient with myself. By enjoying the time I put into personal cultivation for myself, I'm learning to learn things I never knew. As well as develop other talents and skills that I would like to help other children and adults develop that bring success over time, and pure joy within oneself, to find happiness blossom within.True confidence blossoms within when one is able to recognize their potential and they have convinced themselves of the process they earned by trying as best they were able.When we work together we can also perpetuate change in ourselves as well as for others. A little effort can do a lot in graphic design, art, music and means of education.To learn more about personal cultivation please click below.
