Digital art, but not AI art :)

Since I dove into digital art full-time in July for health reasons, I’ve had to prove that my art isn't AI-generated.
I know there are people who create their material using AI, but these works of mine are created entirely by drawing by hand :) When drawing digitally, I have to choose the colors myself, understand shapes, know how to create light and shadow using colors, and be the idea that I want to bring to life as a work of art :) The works don’t just appear with the snap of a finger; they require a lot of time and patience to complete 😊 Today, I cruised by bus to Lahti, and I have to say, sitting in a café and drawing a new piece, you hear all sorts of things 🫣😂 It’s been quite a challenge to hold back my laughter while listening to the men at the "old boys' club" talking 😄 I should have opened my mouth and thanked them for the funny stories, the humorous burst of knowledge, and for saving my day too 👏☀️☺️ Life is fascinating. Have a lovely day to you there ☺️👋
