Is This Art?
I do not know the answer to this.

Is Art Generated by AI Art? Can It Even Be Art? What Makes Art Art?

Such questions quickly appear in every AI-related forum or website.

It is something that is heavily debated in the AI community, with all sorts of people (trained artists and non-artists) having all sorts of opinions (no it isn't - yes it is; no it can't - yes it can; only humans make art - AI can make art etc...) and endless (i.e. fruitless) discussions.

For Me, It Is Simple

From my point of view it's all very easy: basically, if you think it is art, it is, and if you think it isn't, it isn't. In the end, it doesn't matter. "Art" is simply a word, trying to define something that by its very nature cannot be defined because it has to be experienced.

Selling AI-Generated Art?

 

Since anyone can create images using AI, for free or very little money, why do I sell my work?

Simply put: I believe the images I offer you bring you beauty and inspiration. I put a lot of time and effort into creating them. Prompting, simple as it may seem, is not easy if you have a specific idea in mind. There is a steep learning curve involved, and a lot (a lot!) of practice and experimentation are necessary for good results. A lot of time goes into learning about various art styles and artists, photography, cinematography, the intricacies of prompt-crafting and more. Sometimes it feels like a crash-course in art history, photography or computer science. Of course, the knowledge I acquire this way is not comparable to someone with a degree in Art History, or Computer Programming. And I don't believe it needs to be. 

 

But, I think the result is of value, and worth every cent.

Financial Support?

 

If you are interested in my creations but are in a challenging place financially, please get in touch. I'm sure we can work something out.
