Artist{inspiration from EmmAI} I felt compelled to do this. I believe that I have been an artist since age 5. That was the time I first sat down on the floor to draw a sailboat from a picture I was looking at. Unless you want to consider the Etch A Sketch at age 3, let's just say age 5. When I was 6 I had one of those Crayola 64 color boxes of crayons just like every other kid of my time had in 1970. It even had a crayon sharpener built in! Remember those? I can still remember how they smelled and how they got soft if you left them in the sun on a hot day. One time I ventured to use every crayon in the box in one picture and my mother sees me there, on the floor drawing and she says, "You don't have to use every crayon in the box!" HA! But I had already got the idea in my head and surely was already setting out to do exactly that! As the years go by and we're doing art class in school I got to dabble in all different kinds of media/medium. Charcoal, pen and ink, clay, batiks on paper, watercolor, tempera paint, yarn, photography etc but by the time I graduated from school computers in schools were still in its earliest stages. It wasn't until 1994 after being into photography and ink drawings extensively that I saw a documentary about how the movie industry used digital technology and the cost of the processors they used. By about 2000 I had enough technology in my hands for under a $1000 and a copy of PhotoShop 5! I was in high cotton! Since then as the technology moved along, I too have moved along. We have to. Now AI and AI art is a bit controversial but despite that I remember one thing: I will use every crayon in the box! AI digital creation is just another step that helps me and others achieve our visions. Like all the software that came before it, we have to learn how to use it and attune it and ourselves to reach that harmonious fusion which results in a vision that pleases us and we hope, we truly hope, that others can find that same connection in our art that we did. Much love
An artist reflects on their creative journey, starting from childhood with crayons and evolving through various mediums. They embraced traditional art before transitioning to digital technology, inspired by the intersection of art and innovation. Now, they explore AI art as a new tool, aiming to create impactful visuals that resonate with others.
