January 16, 2025

We drew at the Edith Bunker in Albuquerque, with Monty Singer and Brian Gonzales.  I collaborated with AMBER SPENCE -- she started a painting, and I started a drawing -- and we traded places during the night:

Collaborating was fun.  Maybe we should have a "Painting Swap," where artists bring their painting failures to the drawing session, and then exchange them with another artist with a painting failure, and they can both try to revive a dead painting.  Just another collaboration idea.

"What is this"

I uploaded my drawings to Google and asked questions -- like "what is this" -- after Google did a reverse search:

I uploaded my drawing to Google
to ask "what is this" and other questions


WHAT IS THIS? 

"This is an ink drawing on paper titled "Dve muške figure" (Two Male Figures) created by Uroš Toškovic in 1956."

Um...Google was close, but no...there is a drawing by Uroš Toškovic named "Dve muške figure," but it ain't by me.



 WHAT IS THIS? 

"This appears to be a pencil sketch of a seated female figure, possibly a study for a sculpture. The artist has used a unique style, creating a sense of texture and movement through a series of short, linear marks."

Google was pretty accurate this time.

"This is a digital painting of a woman in a seated pose. It features an abstract, expressive style with bold brushstrokes and a combination of black, white, and other colors."


I do not remember being able to ask questions in Google about my drawing before -- this must be a recent AI improvement.  At the end of last year I was able to talk Google into generating an image however.




The previous night (January 15th) I had my photo taken at Quelab:
