My name is Eric Ovelgone, and I go by the name DarkRubyMoon. I've worked using a wide range of mediums for my art and worked on a wide range of topics. I enjoy everything from country craft art and traditional oil painting to computer graphics. I work on a wide range of genre topics from traditional subject matter to fantasy and anime. I've worked using acrylic paint, watercolors, oils, pastels, pencil, color pencil, pen and ink, clay, wood, paper, computer graphics such as MS Paint, Adobe Paintshop and Photoshop, Corel Draw, etc, etc. I've had some minor recognition such as a painting on display in a local gallery and some minor art awards. I occasionally sell my artwork at local shows in the Maryland region.
NO AI! SAY NO TO AI ART AND SAVE ART!
I HAVE DECIDED THAT I WILL NOT EVER USE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR CREATING MY ARTWORKS NOR HAVE I EVER USED AI FOR ANY ARTWORKS ON DISPLAY HERE. I realize that by refusing to use AI, I may be hindering possible future sales and in the future my artworks are likely to be significantly less perfect that those who use AI, trace, use projectors or otherwise take shortcuts...but by doing those things, I could not honestly claim those works to be mine. This is important enough to me that I feel I must completely avoid use of such technologies even when it comes to coming up with ideas for my works. I fear over use of such technology would weaken my skills and ability to create on my own. At same time I am aware this will mean others far less skilled will master works I can only dream of with little to no effort.
I will sometimes do commission work. My prices are reasonable for human graphic artist, but I will only take on works I want to do and take as long as I feel I need to complete the piece to meet my standards of quality. Frankly at this point, I can not compete with AI generated images nor do I wish to do so. If you are interested in having a work commissioned, please contact me with a detailed description of what it is you want done, and I will return with a price estimate for the work. Be sure to allow plenty of time for the work completion.

Personal Quote: "But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
AI offers the potential to do both ...destroy humanity or save it. If our very first uses of it are performed in such an unscrupulous manner...what will that teach AI? It does not hold well if the first foray into this technology are done so by stealing from artist . Hope must always be tempered by reason and caution to which I fear is for want in the current path of AI development.
