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.

No 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
