Embracing Incremental Progress in Art and Technology

 

This evening, I focused on photographing a piece of original art—a blend of cybernetic elements and nostalgia, featuring a cat integrated with an old-school Apple computer. Capturing this artwork has been a challenge due to the reflective inks used, which complicate scanning. My goal is to master how to reproduce these images effectively, making it easier to share older works that resonate with my style.

In this process, I made significant strides in editing the photograph. While I could have navigated this independently, having AI as a resource streamlined my efforts. It helped me sift through relevant information, allowing me to focus on what truly mattered in achieving my goals.

As I explore the intersection of art, technology, and the concept of transhumanism, I find immense value in tools that enhance my creativity and learning. The integration of AI into my workflow reflects a future where human ingenuity and technology work together to push creative boundaries.

I welcome your comments and feedback. Thank you for following my journey, and I look forward to sharing more progress soon.

Sleeping Ceauty – A Step Toward Simplicity

 

In my usual creative process, I gravitate toward complexity—intricate details, layered symbolism, and themes that require time to unfold. My piece "Age of AI," for example, is a fully realized work created with digital pen over the course of 300 hours. While I value these intricate projects, they represent just one side of my art.

"Sleeping Ceauty" is an intentional departure. The aim was to explore simplicity while maintaining balance and depth. I approached this piece with the goal of completing it in a single day, focusing on clarity in composition and mood rather than getting lost in detail.

The artwork depicts a calico cat draped over a crescent moon, set against a deep purple sky scattered with stars. It’s straightforward in concept but offered room to experiment. Working mostly with a digital paintbrush—rather than my usual pen tool—challenged me to embrace a softer, more painterly approach. Subtle glowing effects, light, and shadow also became key aspects of the piece, as I worked to refine techniques that are new to me.

This piece carries a different energy from my usual work, which often leans into darker tones or explores societal and personal themes. "Sleeping Ceauty" allowed me to shift gears, embracing something lighter and more whimsical. Recent projects, like a tribute piece for my mom’s late cat Spock, have influenced this exploration into feline-inspired art.

Sometimes, I experiment.

 

Something I've been dreaming up. Experimenting with sketching on my phone again. Work in progress, I call it "Sleeping Ceauty".
