The Dragon Queen represents my journey into the realm of AI artistry. It began with the concept of an enigmatic, powerful warrior woman, and evolved through countless iterations, each refining her essence. The final creation embodies a mystical figure, gracefully commanding the energies of the majestic creatures that soar through ancient skies. She radiates wisdom and strength, adorned in armor that shimmers like starlight. As a guardian of balance, she stands resilient against negativity, her eyes glowing with unyielding curiosity and determination to explore the wonders of the universe.

Rebekah is a self-taught photographer/digital artist based in San Antonio, TX. After earning a doctorate in viral ecology, she embraced her passions for photography and art. Her love of photography has grown over a lifetime of travel thru 30 countries. Her art often captures street and daily life, architecture, and unique views. Drawing inspiration from influential women photographers like Vivian Maier and Sally Mann, she is dedicated to achieving perfection, often seen lying on the ground, crouching or contorting herself to find the ideal angle conveying her inner vision and emotional depth.
