Come see how AI image generation is enhancing real art - enhancements have started to be integrated into this modern "Aeon Tarot" show at Melrose Collective...

In the next week we will be teasing out some of the work that encompasses the show opening this First Friday. About September of last year the AI world of text generated images became available to the public. Just at the same time Mr. Mantey was compositioning the remainder of the panels of this upcoming show. Having a clear vision of what was needing to be conveyed thru this work, the Tarot deck- at least the last portion was in part augmented by this artificial intelligence. See for yourself how it turned out, and have an opportunity to speak to the artist about his view of the subject and how ethically it can be used to improve the work- like any other tool in an artists toolbox. All of Duane's work is hand painted original works.

"Waterfall tsunami hail" mixed media this is the second one I've done where there is a dirty pour which I then do a painting over I've always wanted to do this I think it brings a certain realism to the abstract and a certain abstract to the realism. I thought this guy was diving at first and I noticed the way I painted the shadows can only mean he's hailing the water I'm glad I worked it out. This is a 1 in board Birch panel 24 inch by 24 in you can see it in the new collection going in to our Central avenue gallery how would this look in your home?
