## Abstract (arXiv)

Generative art unlocks boundless creative possibilities, yet its full potential remains untapped due to the technical expertise required for advanced architectural concepts and computational workflows. To bridge this gap, we present GenFlow, a novel modular framework that empowers users of all skill levels to generate images with precision and ease. Featuring a node-based editor for seamless customization and an intelligent assistant powered by natural language processing, GenFlow transforms the complexity of workflow creation into an intuitive and accessible experience. By automating deployment processes and minimizing technical barriers, our framework makes cutting-edge generative art tools available to everyone. A user study demonstrated GenFlow's ability to optimize workflows, reduce task completion times, and enhance user understanding through its intuitive interface and adaptive features. These results position GenFlow as a groundbreaking solution that redefines accessibility and efficiency in the realm of generative art.
