Have you dreamed of creating visionary art?
Have you contemplated creating your own oracle deck but are flummoxed at the idea of creating unique images that reflects your vision?
Are there visions you carry within your heart that you have not seen reflected in stock photography and licensable artwork?
Well, I’m here to introduce you to a tool that I have fallen in LOVE with over the past year. It’s called Midjourney.
Perhaps you’ve heard of it.
It is an AI (Artificial Intelligence) platform that translates your written prompts into glorious artwork.
I first tried it last year, but wasn’t entirely sold on it.
But with all AI programs, it continues to learn and evolve.
I found my way back to it in February of this year and was ASTOUNDED at the quality of artwork it created as I fed in my written words.
A whole new world opened up for me.
Since then, I’ve created thousands of images.
Here are just a few of the images I’ve created with Midjourney.
Diving into the endless opportunities provided by Midjourney has been a deeply magical and inspiring journey for me.
It’s even helped me to create my first oracle deck, The Earth Angels Oracle
You can Order it Here!
I love this adventure so much, I want to share it with you so that you can create your own unique images and artwork, too!
While there are many resources out there that will help you learn Midjourney on your own, I know that technology can sometimes feel intimidating.
So if you’d like to learn Midjourney with me, I’d love to be your guide.
In addition to learning the basics of Midjourney, this class is also about opening to your inner vision and translating what you “see” and sense within you into beautiful images.
Have you been imagining the healing temples of Atlantis?
Do you want to translate the healing light you see in your imagination into a beautiful piece of artwork?
Do you want a “photograph” of a woman standing on the edge of a mountain welcoming in the sunrise?
All of this and so much more is within your reach with Midjourney.
All it takes is a few keystrokes and your imagination and glorious images are created!
You will receive:
6 weekly group Zoom classes with Laurel
Weekly assignments to support you in moving forward
Recordings of calls
This 6-week class is designed to teach you the basics of using Midjourney while helping you connect with your Creative Spirit
A little FAQ for you…
What is Midjourney?
Midjourney is a generative artificial intelligence program that can convert natural language into an image. For example, you can type in “Watercolor of an angel meditating on the beach on a bright sunny day” and it will create images inspired by your prompt.
These are the four options it created from the above prompt. And it only took about two minutes.
How much does Midjourney cost?
You can read more about Midjourney’s subscription plans here. For the duration of this class, I recommend you subscribe to the $30/month plan. You can sign up for the monthly billing option and cancel later on if you find Midjourney isn’t your thing.
I’m not great with technolgy. Will I be able to learn this?
Well, the good news is it’s pretty easy to use. It’s just that to get to the “easy” part, you need to learn something new and that can feel clumsy sometimes. And, as it so happens, I’m a pretty good teacher and used to train people how to use complicated software back in my corporate life, so I’ll do my best to help you learn!
Who owns the copyright of the images I create?
Good question. Here’s where you can read Midjourney’s Terms of Service including copyright.
Now, I’m not a lawyer, but from what I understand, you will have non-exclusive rights to use the images you create for commercial or personal purposes.
What is Discord?
Discord is the platform that hosts the Midjourney program. Therefore, to use Midjourney you will need both a Discord account and Midjourney account.
Do I need a computer or can I do this on my phone?
Ultimately, you can create Midjourney images on your phone using the Discord app, but for the purposes of the class, I recommend learning on your computer.
How will the class work over Zoom?
I will be sharing my screen with you so that you can see how things work.
I don’t consider myself very creative. Is this class and Midjourney right for me?
YES! A thousand times yes! Midjourney has ignited my own creative spark in ways I could have never before imagined. Whether you are already an accomplished artist or you can’t draw an apple, you will be able to experience creative miracles with Midjourney!
There’s lots of free YouTube videos and other tutorials out there. Do I really need this class?
Nope. Not at all. If you’re someone who easily learns on your own, go for it. That’s what I did.
But, I know some of you may feel intimidated in learning this on your own. My intention is to make this fun and accessible for you.
In addition, the angels and I are going to create a sacred beautiful space where you can open to your Divine Artistry using Midjourney as a creative tool.
What do you mean about Divine Artistry?
Well, many of us who love the angels, healing, light and the mystical magical path, carry images and vibrations in consciousness. A tool like Midjourney can help you bring your visions to life. It’s been an amazing experience for me and I’d love to hold space for you to discover what is seeking to be expressed through you, too.
