Postcards from Mid Journey
These colourful, strangely nostalgic, landscapes are places which only existed for a moment, never to be seen again.
Each Mid Journey prompt includes French seaside towns, in the style of famous dead artists. The postcard border includes a fictitious title relating to the artist and place of origin. For example, La promenade de la plage française d'Edward Hopper.
My idea, as with my previous postcard projects, was to create a place in time that might be considered ideal - a place to escape to, surreal and fantastical. Isn’t that what we want in a getaway?
To be sure, all of these painting are done by my own hand and not computer generated. The AI program was simply a swatch file for my imaginings. I have decided to close the portal. I really see this as a one time collaboration with Mid Journey.
