Betinna's instructions said to start with Gemini.

I had never tried Google's AI generator. I still have mixed feelings about AI.

But I gave it a try

Once.

Here is the image I started with.

I opened the image in Procreate.

My original plan was to cut and paste the nine people onto a portrait-mode page, with three rows of three images.

I was going to use the "erase" tool to omit the background, then draw a new background that fit the scene.

From 4:27 to 4:32 I used the selection tool to break the image into EIGHT pieces.

From 4:32 to 4:39 I arranged the pieces onto the page.

I later discovered that I SHOULD have created a template with the correct aspect ratio..

 I will remember to do that next time....

From 4:39 to 5:00 I spent time trying to erase the backgrounds.

Usually, this is pretty easy to do in Procreate, but something is going wrong.

I stopped working on the project for the day.

So far, I've only spent about 35 minutes on this, but it seemed longer because my tools aren't working very well.

I will add a note later to explain what went wrong...

But I didn't work on the project again until Sunday.

On Sunday I decided to try a different method: 

Instead of using the existing images and removing the backgrounds, I would  just DRAW an entire new layer, tracing the images I have.

Here's where I started: at 7:47 AM.

I took a few screenshots to show my progress, but I did not record the exact amount of time I spent doing the overdrawing.

I took a walk from 8:12 to 8:50. I did my exercises until about 9:20.

I took a screenshot at 9:37.... which must have been when I copied over the file and merges the layers and stared the overdrawing....

Between 9:37 and 10:00 I exported several TIFF files, them into Pages, printed, and cut the cards apart. After each print I made some adjustments.

At ten o'clock I exported the final  TIFF file, to test how it would look when cut apart.

Next there was a period of getting the image correctly proportioned for printing as a PDF.

This took a while. 

I exported the screenshots and converted them to 1080-pixel wide images for this webpage.

I keep an active Pages file on my iPad, and any time I need to print ATCs, I print from that file.

Here is the final image.

I will save it as a PDF and offer it to "the group."
