AI로 재현한 단원 김홍도의 붓끝: 한강과 강남 빌딩 숲, 수묵화로 거듭나다

A commemorative/narrative painting in the style of Kim Hong-do, capturing a nighttime drone light show above Gyeongbokgung Palace and Gwanghwamun Square. The traditional palace architecture is meticulously rendered in detail using firm ink lines and deep traditional colors against a dark, expansive sky (achieved with a deep, dark blue-indigo wash). The "drones" are depicted as a shimmering pattern of light, a modern equivalent of celestial clouds or fireworks, represented by bright cinnabar red and vivid gold pigments rendered with delicate, dot-like brushstrokes. The foreground shows a small, astonished crowd drawn with bold, simple lines, gazing upwards. The atmosphere is awe-inspiring and monumental, showcasing the continuity of Korean tradition and cutting-edge technology.

 

 

A detailed landscape painting in the style of Kim Hong-do, [depicting a leisurely weekend scene at a vast Han River Park.] The wide river is rendered with expansive yeobaek (empty space) and light ink washes. The foreground is filled with tiny, lively figures—people cycling, setting up tents, or fishing—drawn with the artist's signature simple, observational brushstrokes. In the background, modern apartment complexes rise like layered mountains, detailed only with clean, pale ink lines and subtle shading to create atmospheric perspective. The palette emphasizes natural tones: sumi-e for structures and deep malachite green for the riverbanks and grass, with hints of cinnabar red on leisure equipment. The overall mood is peaceful and harmonious, showing the coexistence of modern leisure and natural beauty.

 

A genre painting in the style of Kim Hong-do, focusing on a dynamic contemporary scene of Gangnam Station during rush hour. The composition highlights a dense crowd of people moving swiftly, treated with the artist's characteristic bold, energetic, and minimalist figure drawing. Surrounding them are the sharp, towering forms of modern buildings, rendered with delicate ink outlines and pale gray washes, contrasting with the lively figures. The palette is dominated by sumi-e (black, white, gray), with sparse, bright traditional colors (like cinnabar red and malachite green) used for small details like signal lights and clothes, capturing the chaotic yet humorous energy of modern life. The overall mood is humorous and keenly observant, transforming the urban commute into a classical folk scene.
