Children's Book and Art
Photographer and artist Nathan Cool brings happy, baby elephants to life in playful ways using AI art-generation and a variety of graphic editing techniques to add the human "touch".
Inspired by play with his grandchildren, Nathan's hyperrealistic baby elephants are turned into stories in his book,
Baby Elephants, which is available on Amazon.
You can see some of this collection in the gallery below, which will be available as framed prints and canvas wall art soon.

Nathan Cool is a professional photographer, writer and artist living in Thousand Oaks, CA. With four grandchildren who call him "Pa", Nathan was inspired by their love for elephants and began creating artwork to depict how they might play. Using his background in graphic design and photo editing, Nathan uses commercially-safe Adobe products to generate AI images, which he then modifies to create hyperrealistic images for this Baby Elephants collection. Knowing how much his grandkids love him to read to them, Nathan turned part of this art series into a children's book with a message that we are all unique, in each and every way we play. Nathan continues to work as a full-time photographer and writer, but in his spare time, when not playing with his grandkids, he enjoys creating more baby elephants, so stay tuned for more fun to come!
