Painting of young woman with her hand up guarding against a dislodged usb, with a backdrop of gold leafed computer circuit design
“NOT AI” oil, gold leaf and reclaimed tech, on wood panel, 24x30”
How much is AI quietly seeping into our lives? When do we realize it’s too much? And then what?

Will this painting will be favoured by the algorithm? Does it feature nudity? Maybe? But No Nipples!
Every brushstroke fights back against the algorithms that flatten our thoughts, identities, & creativity. This is not just a painting—it’s a rebellion.

Painting seems the opposite of technology. Do you have “analog activities” that balance out your screen time?

A quick (almost) Zorn study. Limited colour palette + Limited time = Magic (and way less over thinking!)

On this day, 2017: I drove down to take part in the #WomensMarch on #Washington with 3 women, to protest THAT #inauguration; same guy. Many shown here fought in the 60s/70s for rights & freedoms that many young 'uns take for granted today. Fight ain't over, ladies. Suit up. #resist #womensrights

Possibly the last EyePhone? I absolutely loved working in this series. Love the surface & love the subject. But, alas, I’m done with painting this small. Time for new directions and less constraints 💗

Oil painting: Zorn palette with last minute introduction of cinnabar green. I love the Zorn palette, so much freedom in that “restriction”.
Next is the gold leafing…

I wonder how this platform handles human form? Are nipples threatening over here?
