...that doesn't actually answer the question. > No image model, and no Friedrich images given to the painters. Every picture here is a program written by an AI model; all but one (a comparison, marked) run through a simulation of oil paint. ... > A physical oil-paint simulator in Rust, and an easel to paint with it. > Every mark is made the way a painter makes it: simulated bristles carry wet paint over a primed linen canvas, the paint levels and dries on a clock, and layers combine by Kubelka–Munk optics. Paint comes only from piles knifed together from named tubes. https://github.com/aliceisjustplaying/claude-paint
