A.I. Generators Violate Artists, Like Myself

A.I. image generators violate the rights of millions of artists; I’m one of those artists. A.I. sys­tems are trained on vast amounts of copy­righted work with no con­sent, no credit, and no com­pen­sa­tion. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/are-ai-image-generators-stealing-from-artists-180981488/

‘Harmonious Equine Bond’ Painting by Christian Baloga

The acrylic artwork features a woman and a horse. The woman is standing to the right side of the painting, dressed in a vibrant pink shirt with the sleeves rolled up to her elbows. She has dark, wavy hair, pale skin, and prominent facial features. She looks with a piercing gaze. Her attire suggests a casual but stylized fashion.

In contrast, the horse occupies the left side of the canvas, portrayed with a rich chestnut brown coat. The reins and bridle indicate that the horse is well-cared for and possibly ready for a ride. There is a notable interaction between the woman and the horse; she holds onto the bridle delicately, showing a bond between the two.

The background includes an out-of-focus trail of greenery and pink flowers, creating an impression of an outdoor setting with a soft, pleasant atmosphere. The painting itself is rich in color and character, using texture and detail to bring the figures to life. Gloss finished.

‘Pageantry’ Painting by Christian Baloga

I’ve just completed a new artwork titled ‘Pageantry’. You can now purchase it through Peggy or SaatchiArt.

The artwork is a vividly colored painting presenting a regal scene. The focal point is a figure, Brian Kenny, Mr. Baloga’s muse and fiancĂŠ, seated on an ornate throne with a high back that branches out into stylized, lightning-like forms at the top. The character on the throne wears a theatrical outfit reminiscent of Michael Jackson or a historical royal attire, with yellow and white stripes and bold red pants. Above the figure, a golden arch showcases luxurious decoration, including a crown symbol at the apex, flourishes, and a coat of arms or emblem featuring a ‘BK’ logo beneath the crown.

On either side of the archway, there are banners with the letters ‘BK’ and ornamental patterns. To the left of the throne, a red banner bears the name “Brian Kenny,” while the corresponding position on the right displays the letters ‘BK.’ The throne itself is adorned with golden embellishments, intricate designs, and striking red upholstery. Steps leading up to the throne have a checkerboard pattern, implying a grand entrance. The setting extends a sensation of opulence, grandeur, and perhaps a touch of satire, drawing upon elements of royalty and pageantry.

It’s made from acrylic, pen and ink, and gold liquid leaf paint.
