It was a real pleasure to paint this commission for Tom Kerridge. Tom has fond memories of this block of flats where his dad lived as he explains here:

Very chuffed to have had my charcoal drawing ‘Fracture’ selected for the prestigious Discerning Eye Exhibition. Doubly pleased as my wife’s murmuration painting was also selected (@beckiereedartist).

AI crosses boundaries of ethics, law and environmental sustainability. We must fight to curb it before it’s too late.

The AI push started with the art world. Now we’re allowing billionaires, tech bros and machines to alter and destroy so much of what we hold dear. AI now grows at an exponential rate and without proper regulations could (will?) be devastating. And it’s happening in real time.

This may be a minor issue to some but it goes far deeper. We know how important art is. It’s a defining human endeavour. It enriches us, it empowers, inspires and connects us. We need to keep it that way.

From online accusations leading to artists needing to prove their work is 100% made by the human hand to stolen art through data scraping. All of this ultimately devalues true creativity.

Meta and other such companies are now using their AI tools to completely alter the way art is distributed, valued and created. Artists, illustrators, makers and designers are facing a major crisis.

It has recently come to my attention that Meta is labelling several of my posts as ‘Likely made using AI’. What you see on my website and social media is 100% human-created art. No AI tools or generators are, and never will be, used at any stage of my creative process.
