I went to the lavender festival yesterday to support my friend Buffie. She and I worked together to make decor for her booth. I hand painted signs and made original art work for some of her lavender products.
When I arrived her tent did look homemade among all the ai and computer generated art. It wasn’t “clean or crisp” as other tents. It was homey. I scrutinized my own artwork and knowing I did it less than a day I gave myself grace over the lines that I should have made cleaner and the composition that could’ve been better laid out…
But Clear View Farm and Buffie Myers won the best tent award. I think the world’s eyes are getting tired of the computer generated art. ❤️
I know for myself I don’t want to partake in any business or event that using this form of marketing.
Please please reach out to artists to hire. Buffie and I arranged bartering trade for my services. Younger artists are affordable and willing to work. Please support the younger artists and stop killing our farm land by using ai.
