This project demonstrates a new kind of drawing tool with a novel interface. Recent research in machine learning for image generation has mainly been focused on producing high-quality results and its efficiency in doing so. There was little consideration for how these systems should be interacted with by their actual intended users. My project offers an interface allowing for users to generate images by specifying details in a composition using high-level textual descriptions. To validate this design, I conducted two studies involving expert artists, designers, and UX practitioners.
