I used to work in a place where one of the middle managers would comment that the younger folks ate like gannets. I heard her benign but strange words as I was painting this little gannet, experimenting with high flow acrylics

Remember when the sky was that diabolical blue back on the sunny days of January and February? I took myself around the industrial parts of Leith to try to capture it. A long time overdue.

The future of art in a world with AI? Watching artists do the work, and face to face sales. The value will be in the human interaction, not the object.

The future of art in a world with AI? Watching artists do the work, and face to face sales. The value will be in the human interaction, not the object.
Lately I've been thinking a lot about the purpose of art, the conflict of creation and AI, and the political landscape we find ourselves in. We artists make things, and we're not always sure why, but the making is the important part, not the product. We make, we figure it out, then we communicate.

Sometimes it takes a while to figure out the emotional core of the art I'm creating. The key to unlocking these paintings was the word "Turbulent".
