Welcome back to my blog, where I force myself to be minutely productive during the week with Art stuff, and I tell you about it.
This week was a bit scant on actual production, I didn’t get any real painting done due to a minor injury to my wrist late in the week. If perhaps I didn’t procrastinate so badly, there would have been some progress beforehand, but since I generally am the King Of Delay, we’re left with what we have. Oh well, lessons learned for next week, I suppose. This week:
-I added a “NO AI” badge and page to Ye Olde Website, in the footer. I want people to know my stance on generative AI in art and my pledge that I don’t and won’t use it.
-I came up with what might be a viable concept for a mid-range priced item for upcoming shows, using my spiffy new 3D printer. More to come on that front when there’s something to show.
-I did some basic concepting/sketching around an idea for a new painting:
A Reaper with a crowbill hood.
A mysterious Acolyte of a long-forgotten fire god.
A fun experiment with mood.
Those were all done during the week in Procreate, so maybe I wasn’t quite as procrastinate-y as I thought? I’m not giving up my crown, though.
Hopefully next week I’ll get in gear a bit more and start flailing in a particular direction. Until then, thanks for reading.
