Let There Be Light watercolours

A few years back I created a small piece of artwork which I called Genesis because out of the darkness came full spectrum light. I didn't intend it to be anything remotely biblical but sometimes we see something in a painting quite unexpectedly. However, I was pretty new to watercolours, even more of an amateur than I am now, and I had plastered the black on so thickly it started to flake off 😆 so I painted it again more recently and with more care and a somewhat different approach.

Genesis 1:3 (King James version) "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light."

Below is the original painting called Genesis. Looking at it, I think it also involved watercolour pencils, I'm not sure. I like it and I still have it, despite the flakiness which you can't really see in the photo.

I thought I would see what Grok Imagine could do. It took many attempts and a lot of editing of instructions to the AI to make it do anything near what I wanted. This is the best that I could make it conjure up.

Some time ago I also changed the Genesis image using the Prisma app, just out of curiosity. They look rather good. Unfortunately, although Prisma used to be free, it no longer is as far as I know. I have included a link to Prisma so you can read about it on the external links page.
