Just got a scam e-mail asking about purchasing art from me. They wanted me to send a bunch of pictures, presumably so they could steal the images. If you get a vague, odd-sounding e-mail asking about purchasing your work, copy the text and paste it into a search engine.

My painting "Fading Future" was awarded 2nd Place at the Virginia Highlands Festival exhibition at the Abingdon Arts Depot. Plus it sold, along with the other painting I had entered. Now I can buy a new roll of canvas.

I highly recommend this FREE program to help protect your art from AI piracy: glaze.cs.uchicago.edu

Posting unprotected, high resolution images of all your hard work only hastens your obsolescence.

Working on some new ideas, still framing several works from the 'Remains' series, processing some pictures to post on the website, trying to not to freak out that the summer break which has barely just started already seems to be flying by. More updates soon.

thanks for mentioning this, by the way- I had no idea since Swans aren't on bluesky.

So Michael is NOT done?

The trouble with AI art isn’t just lack of originality. It’s something far bigger | Eric Reinhart When artwork is invented by a machine, it loses its most important power: to help people connect. In an already lonely era, that is particularly dangerous
