Consider a series of drawing made by a person trying to learn to draw ants. The first drawings are a dot with six lines for legs. Then maybe three circles representing body segments, legs with joints, antennae, mandibles. Next refinement of the shape of the segments, colors, textures. The drawing of the ant evolves from conceptual categories that recapitulate the functionality of the organism.
AI 'art' (like mimicry) works from the other direction. Texture first.
