unfortunately now i'm being an adult when people knows ai as artificial intelligence. growing up, the only ai comes to my mind is adobe illustrator. not to glorify such a giant corporation. but that's the tools i spent years learning.
now that everyone suddenly is a rising artist on their own, i see all those people, whose degrading my drawing and even criticize how i did the art, saying it's not close or good enough. they're an expert now, cos the machine do the work for them. while i'm translating the idea on my mind into the paper or art board BY THE HANDS. of course we're on a different lane, but they're not ready for the conversation, they will never.
it's kinda frustrating to work and keep questioning your worth. when i'm busy and packed into my work, selecting each dots, choosing fonts and colors, i often think about "why i'm still care, do people even care?" i mean, even my client ever revise my design with the help of ai. something which i feel so humiliated, hahaha.
humans will always crave progress, invention. and innovation. these days, everything is expected to be quick and efficient; that is why things made by hand are often looked down upon. but, i love creating things with my hand, something simple, messy, or maybe doesn't instagrammable enough, and honestly those are the things that fulfilling myself the most.
so, in this big 2026 i'm back to my old hobbies, doing scrapbooking slash journaling. cutting. sticking, writing and drawing all at once. since i was a kid, i love to do something artsy, i kept grapes leaves on my textbook so once it dried i could stick it to my notebook. such a weird activity that one of my friend called me a scavenger for doing so. growing up, i realized that i always being that weird girl, huh kinda chic to do something ai couldn't do. hope the future is bright enough for everyone who loves to create and make an art in every form with their hands and heart♡
