Hi everyone,
I just wanted to reintroduce myself to old and new followers and let you all know what's going on in the artworld going forward.
My name is Ciarán and I'm an artist based in Tullow Co. Carlow.
My style of art is photo realistic portraits using pencil and fine line black pen.
No AI here!! just time and patience.
If you want to check out my work and see what prints I have as well as original work check out my site www.ciaranduffyart.com
So after ten years of being online with my artwork I have seen so many changes and more so lately with all the algorithms and use of Ai it is a very hard industry to be in.
I find you're trying to see what works best and how to figure out this system rather than creating actual artwork lol.
For me going forward I really want to show handcrafted created artwork with value.
I just want to thank all of you who have purchased my work up to this point. I really appreciate the support over the past ten years!!
So Going Forward What's New...
1 - To put more original artwork out there.
(Some A3 fully framed pieces with no prints available. Just once off pieces)
I have always liked wildlife and this is something I really want to get into and even using hints of colour would be great to go at as well.
2 - Any prints I do going forward will all be limited editions
(Limited edition of only 10 or even 5 prints up for grabs) . I really want to put art out there that has value even in the prints for someone to know they have one that there will only ever be 10 or even 5 made of.
So that's really it for now folks and thanks for taking the time to read this and as always I really appreciate the continued support. It means alot
So the way to beat the algorithm is to just keep focusing on creating new art and enjoy the process!!
Cheers Folks,
Ciarán 🤘✍
