How to spot a Fake Artist (Updated Ai version)

How to spot a Fake Artist (Updated Ai version)

Nine years ago I wrote a blog post about how to spot a Fake Artist. Back then I pointed out that the world is full of fakes and fakers, and thus it has ever been. Art forgery dates back more than two thousand years. Roman sculptors produced copies of  Greek sculptures.  With the advent of Ai, however, it has got harder than ever to spot the fakers. I have seen real artists fooled by Ai generated art on Instagram too.  

Waiting for Ilston Stream to return

Waiting for Ilston Stream to return

We have been regularly walking our Border Collie, Effie, along Ilston Cwm since late summer. The Cwm (valley) is a wooded crease in the landscape lined by a stream that flows towards the sea at Three Cliffs Bay. Once past Parkmill it is known as Pennard Pill.

Farewell to Derry City

Farewell to Derry City

As a good bye to Derry and am holding a sale of paintings of the beautiful city. It runs until the end of the month.

My Gravatar Profile Emma Cownie

Emma Cownie

Born in Hereford, educated in Whitely Bay, Gloucester, Cardiff and London, I am a professional contemporary artist. I have also lived in Donegal, Derry, and currently in Swansea (again). My work focuses on place in the landscape and their historical context. I also explore how light can focus attention on fleeting moments. By documenting the shadows cast in bright sunshine or by night time street lamps, I seek to catch a moment. I have found myself drawn to and influenced by painters who have a special relationship with colour and light; such as American realists Edward Hopper, Rockwell Kent, Fairfield Porter and British painter David Hockney. I am also drawn to the bold colours and simplified forms of Modern American painters such as Lois Dodd, Jessica Brilli and Mitchel Johnson.
