This piece gives the impression of color being thrown across the canvas with force, as though the orange were splattered in long arcs and sudden bursts. Lines crisscross the surface in sharp, energetic streaks, with drips and splatters landing where chance allowed. Against the steel-gray background, the orange feels both deliberate and chaotic, like motion frozen in midair.
Back in early 2020, just as Covid was beginning to take hold, I started searching for a new hobby I could do from home. Around that time, I had become a volunteer at the Robert Ferguson Observatory here in Sonoma County, and I began experimenting with astrophotography, capturing deep-space objects through a telescope.
That curiosity led me to explore other forms of digital creation, and I quickly discovered that AI art was starting to gain traction. I signed up for an AI art platform and was instantly hooked.
After a few years of experimenting and learning, I applied to the art incubator program at the Sebastopol Center for the Arts and was thrilled to be accepted. It was there that I learned the ins and outs of the art world and how to take my practice more seriously.
Since then, I've shown work in several exhibitions throughout the Bay Area. I always make it a point to be transparent that my work is created with AI, as I want to open conversations rather than ruffle feathers. Over time, I've narrowed my focus to abstract work, a style that, while broad, gives me endless room for exploration and expression.
I realize that AI art can be polarizing. However, my work never attempts to imitate or copy a specific artist. Instead, I use AI as a tool to explore form, color, and rhythm in ways that spark my imagination and open new creative pathways. For me, the process is about curiosity, experimentation, and finding a unique voice that reflects both human intention and technological possibility.
