Anna-Alexia Basile

Women, hats, scandal, iridescence, acrylic materials, layering and light play? Babe I’m there. . Lil photo dump from yesterday’s press preview of the stunning Matisse exhibit at @sfmoma + some mandatory mind melting color play and @studioolafureliasson sky bridge basking after the fact. . Starring the day off with the scandalous color choices of Matisse and ending it with some solo play in the Co-Lab was exactly what my imagination needed. . Love being in these spaces along with the ideas, conversations and connections that follow with when you explore art with amazing people @stayreddy @mud.witch @vallerinagirl 💗 . . . . . . . . . . #matisse #sfmoma #olafureliasson #museumday #creativemornings

🌸🌼🌸Instead of using Chat for therapy, I tried using it for fixing my photos instead of my problems. Rather of my usual workflow, I edited an entire image inside ChatGPT using the @Photoshop extension. No app switching, just ideas and prompts. In the slides: I asked Chat to mix up the flower colors, warm up the subject, and even generatively remove horizon distractions to clean up the composition. Last photo is the original and first photo is the output. Basically you can art-direct with sentences. Once I uploaded the yellow flower image and gave short instructions, I could tweak everything with sliders directly in Chat. So it wasn’t just “AI, do your thing,” it was more like “AI, let’s collaborate.” I would not (ever😂) replace a pro workflow with this, but it’s a fun way to sketch ideas, test looks, and explore directions quickly. And it’s okay to still like the initial version more, you can just play.Think of it as concepting, not a final export. AI can support the process, but the human eye and touch are still the secret sauce. If you want to try it: • Go to “Apps” in ChatGPT • Select Photoshop • Connect it + accept terms • Head back to chat, tag @Photoshop , upload an image, and start prompting Photoshop for ChatGPT brings Photoshop’s editing tools directly into your conversation, so you can transform and refine images with simple prompts and fine-tune controls all in one place. It’s available even on the free plan, so go make something weird or beautiful💅 . . . . . . . #AdobeAmbassadors #Ad #AdobeForChatGPT #photoedits #photography

🍋My first #ArtBash was in 2017 when @solange performed at @sfmoma 🔴. @thechloeroth somehow fenagled 3 tickets from their pr team for me and @erinlovesfun and we could not believe our eyes when we walked in. Color drenched velvet rooms, drinks and bites overflowing everywhere and so many cute people. Smash cut to (I CANNOT BELIEVE) 9 years later and this treasured tradition is still thriving🩷 These memories span 2017–2025 (lost the photos from 2023), and digging through them was a trip😂 Proof that we’ll never skip a bathroom selfie or not hold a stranger hostage for a 15-minute group photo😇 Grateful to SFMoMA for keeping us in the mix all these years🪭 See you tomorrow night 🖼️💅 . . . . . . . . . #sfmoma #artparty #sflife #sfstyle

What if your photo isn’t dull…just waiting to be seen differently? Some snapshots from La Muralla Roja, Chefchaouen, and Marrakesh, revisited to show the quiet power of a 30 second edit. I often use images like these as the starting point for my photo walk flyers, and I love how easy it is to gently breathe life back into a frame by shaping light, color, and feeling with intention in @adobeexpress ✨ ⏰Here’s a simple, beginner 30 second formula you can return to whenever an image feels a little flat: • Brighten to bring everything into view • Adjust contrast to restore or decrease depth and separation • Bump saturation to reawaken those rich, juicy hues • Shift temperature to add warmth or lean into cooler, moodier tones • Use Remove Object to quickly clear away distractions, smoothing out textures that interrupt the feeling It’s less about changing the image and more about revealing what was already there.

Color Hunting: Oaxaca🩷💛 Sun-warmed terracotta, cobalt shadows, marigold air, blending in, blending out…every Oaxacan hue hums like it has a memory. Even the light seems to arrive painted here✨🎨 . Throwback to this adventure celebrating @naomimaki , bikini pics galore, Grace’s perfect hair and all the most dreamy colors you could imagine in this incredible city. It’s hard to know where to look when you’re surrounded by so many perfect moments😍 . . . . . . . . . . . . . #oaxacatravel #oaxacalotienetodo #coloresdeoaxaca #oaxacamexico #colorsofmexico

Celebrating 6 years of being an @adobeexpress ambassador and somehow it feels less like a program and more like a well designed plot twist. What began as a professional opportunity quietly unfolded into a constellation of people who make beautiful things and turn even the smallest ideas into something luminous. And who, at one point, followed me up a one way street in downtown LA. On bikes. At night. 10/10 character building😇 This carousel is an ode to the collaborations, travel adventures and friendships that have blossomed through this program. Professional projects turned personal, numerous expansive speaking opportunities, inside jokes I hope I’m never required to explain, and the occasional mysterious skeleton hand beckoning you to the dance floor after a long day of learning and connecting. As adults, and especially as solopreneurs, it can feel rare to find people who meet you in your curiosity…who celebrate your wins like they are their own, and who remind you that making things is better when you are not doing it alone. Grateful for this wildly inspiring corner of the internet and real life. Thank you @adobe for supporting artists, creatives and for always striving to keep our communities thriving. If you are looking for your people, the kind who will hype you up and inspire your next creative collaboration, you might find them here.

🌈Finding the color in everything and adding an extra dash of magic with @adobeexpress too✨Design assets are a great way to layer in elements of interest and lead an image to its full potential. I like playing with the opacity of each asset (super easy using the slider tool) to make each light leak blend into the sky for a more seamless effect.

From chaotic, crowded Rio beach energy to a frame that feels focused and intentional. Proof you can turn commotion into art with @lightroom . . These tools are built for the way creators move: intuitive workflows that save time, powerful AI (with third-party models), and fewer manual steps slowing down the creative process. It’s all about less friction, and more focus on the craft. . I’m inspired by how @adobe continues to amplify real photographers and creative leaders, building tools that evolve alongside the way we see the world. And beyond the tools, there are exclusive subscription benefits too, like offers and discounts from Skillshare, Dropbox, WeTransfer, LinkedIn, Flickr, and more. . Creativity should feel fluid...wherever you are, and however busy the moment. . #communityxadobe #adobepartner #riodejaneiro #phototips #lençóismaranhenses

8 years together last week and we didn’t even realize it because we off making out in a hot air balloon outside Mexico City😂 It’s been so fun to run, lay, float and fly through life together. From shimmering waters to the frigid mountain tops, to Vespa and doorless helicopter rides…thank you for keeping me endlessly laughing, never cleaning and wholeheartedly adventured. I love our life, where work and play blur together beautifully🧡 . From our shared collaborations in art to our shared love of ketchup (chips), thank you for always letting me have the first and last bite and for allowing me to keep you up long past your bedtime😇 Happy Valentine’s Day @doesthismakemelookmatt xxoo 🌊🐚✨ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #valentinesday❤️ #lovers #anniversary #8years #valentines

Was low in vitamin d so….🚤🏝️☀️ . Stoked to make work with adventurous clients and wander a little farther for it.

🎄💌One last love letter to the holidays, written as the year exhales. Christmas wouldn’t feel complete without *the* tree…the one we’ve all been quietly swooning over. Our neighbors’ home glows, brimming with the soft breath of fir and the gentle warmth of real candles flickering on every branch 🕯️✨ . These moments are from the season’s first lighting, shared in the company of our endlessly artful neighbors…the quiet architects of vintage glass ornaments, oil bubble lights, and a devotion to placement so precise it makes my Virgo heart sing. A tree like this doesn’t just decorate a room; it gathers people, holds time still, and leaves joy in its wake🎄✨🕯️ . I love drifting between the images of the tree in its full glow and the quiet intimacy of candlelight alone. . . . . . . . . . . . . #vintagetree #christmastreedecorating #bubblelights #glassornaments #holidaycandles
