The video by one of the best art YouTubers showcases several of my best pieces.
Read MoreAI may sour people to art that has anything to do with machine learning or processes, and cause a renewed appreciation of physical art.
Read MoreThe reason I’m exploring this style right now has a lot to do with AI. It’s done using only my own imagination and skills. It also goes against everything I learned in my advanced art classes in university. This piece was a bit of an experiment and template. It’s not a new style for me.…
Read MoreI’ve worked in a lot of styles over the years, and invented several. I have not made a concerted effort to develop one style, preferring to explore a full range of possibilities. Consequently, some people think I don’t have a style of my own. Here are 52 images which share that they are created 100%…
Read MoreThere’s no AI, no appropriation, no references, no photo-bashing, no filters, no uploaded sculpts, no gimmick… It’s essentially just drawing from my imagination.
Read MoreI do this sort of art sometimes when I need a break, don’t feel like studying, learning programs, looking at references, grappling with AI, modeling, or making sketches. In short, I feel like making art, but I don’t feel like “working”. It’s a lot like doodling, or just picking up a guitar and playing without…
Read MoreIt would be rather shallow to see this image as an irreverent sci-fi drawing. Rather, it’s a very eerie, retro sci-fi, darkly spiritual, contemporary art image that fits into the long history of crucifixions in the annals of art.
Read MoreIt used to be that we would say that a work of art was pretty good for AI. From now on we will say that it is pretty good for a human.
Read MoreQuite a departure from my last work, this one’s much more illustrational, sci-fi, and I’m going about it in a more traditional/methodical (as pertains to digital painting) approach. A major difference is that the last piece was all about the painterly impasto techniques, and this one has none of that. It shows promise, but it’s…
Read MoreMy latest art work, and how it relates to the work of Francis Bacon.
Read MoreAfter a long yawn, I can sum up my reaction to the launch of the cards, the artwork, the content, and the fact that they sold out in a day with one word: Derp!
Read MoreThis pressure to stick to one avenue of expression, and the exclusion of stylistic innovation, serves to choke artists’ creativity, and contextualizes them as craftspersons making pretty baubles for the marketplace.
Read MoreThere is no excerpt because this is a protected post.
Read MoreA new digital painting collaborating with AI, and of a creature sitting in a train or bus.
Read MoreArt is the last hope of humans to not be eclipsed by AI, because it is a form of communication based on the predicament of our shared humanity, and requires consciousness, feeling, empathy, caring, and intent. But can digital super-intelligence fake it? It looks like it can.
Read MoreA hyperbolic rant against AI art.
Read MoreNew AI poses an imminent existential threat to artists, especially if it has direct access to their art.
Read MoreDoing more of these is partly just an excuse to try out something new, or add something to the brew. There are a few new elements I mixed in that didn’t appear in prior pieces in this series. Can you guess what they are? Have a look at all 8 below. The piece was entirely…
Read MoreI was only going to make 6, but I wanted to try an experiment, and so now we have 7. I have a couple more experiments I want to do, so I’ll probably push it to 9. And that’s a bit better for a series than 6. This one’s very bright, colorful, and outdoors. That’s…
Read MoreThis image ends the series of 6. Here is the entire series. And here are a few details. I could say a lot more, but for tactical purposes, I’m just going to let the work stand on its own for now. I made this series for the NFT marketplace, and, well, it didn’t get any…
Read MoreThis is one of my favorite works I’ve produced. It’s a tour de force of “painterly” digital painting [using techniques I developed]; addresses art history and the human condition; is an homage to Francis Bacon; and continues the tradition of modernist figurative painting into the digital era.There’s also quite a story behind this, which you…
Read MoreOne of the most common and least interesting questions one is routinely asked is, “What’s your favorite color”. “Who gives a shit?” would for much of my life have been an appropriate enough answer. That’s before I became obsessed, and there was no question. Up until a very specific point, my favorite color was red.…
Read MoreIf you haven’t see the first three, here’s a gallery with all four: If you read my last post, you have a good idea what this series is about. I got some really good comments on it, too, here and on Patreon. I was heartened to discover that people got it on their own, and…
Read MoreThe third image in this series of digital portrait paintings for the digital age.
Read MoreNO, THAT IS NOT A SELF PORTRAIT, OR BASED ON ONE! I haven’t been nearly as active here, because I’ve been wrangling with the NFT sphere, which is the best place for digital artists to make money. The halcyon days of unknown digital artists getting rich selling NFTs may be over. Inevitably, the market would…
Read MoreI’ve been making digital art for the better part of 2 decades, and more seriously in the last 8-9 years. People who know me, or my art, have asked if I’ve gotten into NFTs; some have urged me to do so; and some have asked if I got rich yet. No, I haven’t, and no,…
Read MoreThings are starting to get more grim for our hapless spider. And he’s looking sufficiently realistic that his torment strikes me as cruel — I like spiders — in which case, just in case, I’m letting you know it’s not a real spider. He’s affixed to the cross with a giant spike. Above you can…
