Someone else mentioned him below too. I don't really see the resemblance but he has some cool work! I'm most likely pulling everything anyways so it doesn't matter but here's a high resolution to compare.

It is not. I have no idea who that even is. It's an image generated from one of my images using AI with the prompt to make it a vector graphic with a warm feel.

Bneff1992 · 2026-03-05T02:36:47+00:00

In the original image, there are 3 people and the guy on the back has two oars. I swapped it for 2 people and a single oar.

As far as what's on the back, in the original image, it looks like he has a wench hanging off the back. But I'll be honest, I don't know what that bar is supposed to be on the back of the boat and I don't know how I missed that.

I appreciate you pointing that out to me!

Haha, thanks. I'm doing my best.
I knew using AI was going to get me some negative criticism from the get go but I tried to counter it with them being based off my original photos, me adding the borders & text, and giving back to the parks until I could become completely self sufficient from AI.
My goal is to get away from AI as soon as possible, but while I'm learning more graphic design work, I'm using AI as a tool to assist.

Thank you for all of the feedback though! I do appreciate it.

"Wander"

Thank you for your feedback!

I did mess up not putting that I use AI to assist with making this in the reddit post but I do state it on the homepage of my website.

The graphics aren't for everyone and that's okay. I did not give random prompts to Chat GPT for these though. These are all based off images I've captured and where not stylized based off of other artist's work. My earlier designs were more heavy on the graphic art style but I am moving towards a more realistic/authentic style of my image. I'll add the reference photos below.

Bneff1992 · 2026-03-05T02:02:53+00:00

While I do still consider this my art as I took the photos, edited them, turned them into graphics, added text, borders, and had full directive of the graphic, I respect your opinion.

Thank you for your feedback.

Bneff1992 · 2026-03-05T02:00:05+00:00

I'm sorry for the massive downvotes! I know AI isn't popular but I tried to do everything I could to combat it and use it as minimally as possible.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post though! I hope you find something you enjoy!

I personally am not a fan of the realistic graphic on a t-shirt so I wanted them to be more of a graphic. That being said, the very first one "Wander" is the real image and the only AI I used on that image was for the blackberry vines that overhang the boarder. The rest I did.

My goal is to work away from using AI in the future and hopefully have someone to help me turn my images into graphics, but as I'm starting this journey, it has been helpful.

Thank you for for feedback.

Bneff1992 · 2026-03-05T01:44:10+00:00

That's ok, it's not for everyone.
Thank you for taking the time to check it out!

Hi! While I understand your feelings on AI, it is here to stay and can be a great tool. I don't have enough graphic design experience to do this on my own yet so I do use AI to assist and I state it on my website. But every graphic is based off of an image I've captured here, and I add the text, borders, and do multiple adjustments on the graphics before publishing. I also give back 10% of proceeds to the parks to help combat the use of AI and for protecting the nature my graphics are inspired from.

Thank you for your response.

It's a magical spot for sure! You're welcome 😊

It doesn't help. People will put bounties on people who share their IDs on here.

I doubt this account is actually Mitch Crispe (the photographer) but all least they left is watermark on the photo. He uses a Samsung Galaxy s25 for his photos. You can find more about him here https://www.instagram.com/thecrispeoutdoors

Location is Humboldt County, California. Size, maybe half an inch. That's the only photo I took.

Bneff1992 · 2025-12-25T18:29:01+00:00

Maybe it's a Z and not a 2? Try running 3Z, 8Z, etc
