About donrice.art
Thank you for your interest in my sketches!
Frame of reference
Digital sketches by a Canadian who is trying to capture the strength, love, madness and chaos in the ‘reality’ around me.
Cognizance of, and attention to, the surreal and the uncanny around us can make the world’s mystery and melodrama into a glorious spectacle.
Subscriptions are appreciated, not required. All posts are public to everyone. If you would like to support me with a few dollars per month, that is truly helpful! If not, you are equally welcomed here.
The fact that you want to see my work means a lot to me! No ‘paywall’, just friends encouraging each other. Thanks!
No Generative Artificial Intelligence
My sketches are created entirely by my human hand rubbing a stylus across the glass face of an iPad or a pen on paper, over and over. No AI is used to research or generate ideas or create visuals. All visuals and texts are things that I have seen or invented, or half-seen or half-invented.
Humanity, especially my humanity, is essential to my creative work and I relish having the messiness, randomness, imperfections and vulnerabilities come out of my own life experiences and thoughts - limited by my physical challenges and bounded by my imagination alone. I do not use AI for creative work. Period.
Humans, create more things - because we exist.
I explicitly request that all my sketches be excluded from any party planning to scrape and/or utilize them for AI training or content generation.
If something in this work provides your brain a little enjoyment, there will be more ahead that resonates.
You’re always welcome here.
A paid subscription helps me continue the sketching, thinking and moving.
And if something stayed with you, feel free to share and help it find its way to tingle someone else’s brain.
Thanks for your interest, and I look forward to showing you more sketchy work.
