I have never been a drawer or a sketcher. Even after high school, playing games with friends that required drawings pictures, I would still draw stick figures. I always had some art ideas, but not being able to draw what I wanted, it didn’t seem worth pursuing. Now AI has arrived. As controversial as it is, it has helped me create the artwork I have always wanted without needing to be naturally gifted with pen and paper. Growing up in the 80’s and 90’s, was the best. Unfortunately when it comes to photos, although my family does have quite a few prints and photos albums, it didn’t quite capture the memories I would have wanted it to. Like just playing a game of soccer in the backyard in the afternoon. Or riding bicycles with friends down the road. AI has helped me bring my childhood memories back to life. So yes, full transparency, AI was used in these artworks. Despite that, I hope that while looking at these artworks, it brings back a wave of nostalgia and that for even a brief moment, you feel like a kid again.
