Let's get creepy!

Craiyon uses artificial intelligence to generate images from text prompts. You can type anything in that you'd like and see what Craiyon comes up with. I stumbled across it a couple months ago and love throwing random ideas at it to see what Craiyon spits out.

One day while trying to decide what to ask Craiyon what to make, I thought: why not use my queens as subject matter?

Sylvia Browne

Big Ang

Joan Koplan

I have a soft spot for shameless eccentrics.

These 3 are all angels in heaven now but they still live rent-free in my mind. Each one of these unique ladies brought their own flavor to the world. Something I try to embrace within myself each day. So, let's get to it and make some weird stuff with them.

Sylvia Browne

Sylvia Browne was a famous TV "Psychic" in the late 90s until her death in 2013. I lived for her appearances on Montell. She was bizarre. Always taping those long, claw-like, nails against her teeth and speaking with the voice of a heavy smoker (yet claimed to not smoke). Although I now know she's a fraud and I think a lot of what she said was bogus (and/or stolen from Edgar Cayce) I devoured her books as a teen. It's obvious to me now that she was a pretty terrible person for misleading so many, but there's just something iconic about her that I've never been able to shake.

Craiyon seemed to know her most iconic hairstyle but continued to miss when it came to depicting her face.

Big Ang

Big Ang knew how to live life. I could listen to her talk about dating "wise guys" all day. And, how could you not love that laugh? It's no wonder she ended up stealing the show on Mob Wives and rightfully earning her own spin-off appropriately titled "Big Ang". She was so funny and had such a big heart. Oh, how I love Big Ang.

I think Craiyon loves Big Ang too because she led to the best results of the three.

Joan Koplan

Joan was the star of my favorite reality tv show of all time "Small Town Security". Canceled after only 3 seasons (yes, I wrote the network a letter complaining), this show forever holds a special place in my heart. And, to me, Joanie will always be the queen of reality tv.

Sadly Craiyon was not familiar with Joan Koplan leading to the most disappointing results.
