New found passion

The world works in mysterious ways.that chance encounter with the urban sketcher led me to network with a group of passionate artists.Some have links to art like the architect,interior designer,digital animator n advertising legends.By chance i met Stan Lee and KC Lee the founder of KL Urban sketchers and his interesting artbook about his journey thro life and southeast asia.Stan Lees meeting is really karma at work as my elder sister,a graphic designer in her early career told me about her contribution to his first Malaysian comic Apazine.Stan Lee was really inspirational when i showed him my sketch book of a childs graphic novel. The boy from Pulau Ketam.He was so helpful and suggested the potential to turn the rough sketch into naive art and later introduced me to a naive art painter who uses acryllic.this has reignited my passion and creative juice to create another manga story based on the supernatural so its a psycho thriller about the kumanthong n inspired by the hong kong news about a couple who kept their dead new borns in glass bottles. Also it was a good mix of young and experienced creatives and im learning still about the potential of AI to create faster and more varied output but the prompts are entered by humans and the software will just do its master bidding in terms of lighting,colour or shading.i really like the informal talk . the universe works in mysterious ways and chance encounters led me to new ideas. i also attended the forum at Awesome art gallery which showcased Stan Lees artwork and listened to the forum on how Artificial Intelligence is both a pro and con in the advertising line,musicians composition and architectural3D renditions.yes technology is so advanced but cannot replicate
the speakers concept or ideational output of humans.
