The World is too beautiful not to paint.

Nothing pithy or interesting about me, so I’ll just let the art speak for me. If you twist my arm, I’m not a professional artist. I started in 2014 with spray-paint on drywall, as I was inspired by graffiti. Next, I drifted towards acrylic on canvas. I’ve done experimental sculpture art too, and now I’m primarily a digital artist. Who knows what the future holds?

  • A Question of Parity

    The balance of good verses evil is an old tale in art. This digital art was inspired by earlier work I did in 2020-ish, but centers on the question of what happens when the scales tip, the ideal evaporates, and the cogs begin to question their place in the machine. 

    A I’ve said, there is no AI here, only hours of getting it right via digital art.

  • Spring Selfie

    You see a woman taking a selfie at an old Roman fort in the Balkans. She calls you over to tell her if the selfie looks okay. At first blush, nothing is amiss. Look closer and something sinister is afoot. “But they can’t come out in the daytime,” you mumble. She smiles, “This is the old-world, my friend, not a Bram Stoker novel.”

    Closer to the end of digital art. AI is killing this medium….

  • Mermaid Mashup (Part 2)

    “Why do Mermaids have fish bodies?” This question led to the creation of this artwork. There are myriad of different species in the oceans, one of the most beautiful of which is the Jellyfish. So, when thinking of which to combine with the upper half of a woman, this beautiful creature came to mind. In creating the art, I brought in the influences of Flamenco dancing, where the skirts are flowing in such a way that the motion creates beauty on its own. When I completed the original, I brought in the influence of Bob Ross, and gave her some happy little friends in a second creation. The original title was “With the Fishes” but it seemed too mobster-ish. 

    No AI. I guess I am anti-AI in the art sphere. Art should be created by those who can portray human emotions. Meh.

    You know my views on AI. It’s a digital art killer. Once these are posted, I’m going back to acrylics.

  • A Celebration of Máni

    The moon is out. the Autumn winds whisper through the trees as most of the world is asleep in their beds. But in the wilds a celebration of the Moon, of Máni, the moon personified in Germanic Mythology, is underway around a small fire. His priestess is free of earthly woes as she crafts her moon magic for the deity. Or something like that.

    My anti-AI rant. I don’t hate AI. I think it’s like Vermeers’ Camera Obscura. However, since it’s so easily created by everyone, I think that AI is an art killer. Support human artists.

Would you like to own a copy of one of these digital works? I’ve been slowly listing them as Non Fungible Tokens (NFT) on Open Sea. Basically, you get a copy (usually 1 of 10) digitally signed by me. The link to Open sea is here: https://opensea.io/RobMedley
