Where modern tech meets the timeless craft of the Old Masters
The New Old Masters
Imagine Vermeer in his quiet studio — light streaming through a window, illuminating the scene he so carefully staged.
Now, I can recreate that world digitally: designing compositions, directing lighting, and exploring infinite visual possibilities before ever lifting a brush.
Technology evolves — but true artistry never ages.
In this series, I use the tools of today to continue the legacy of the great painters of the past. Just as Vermeer embraced the camera obscura, I embrace the creative potential of AI. Together, these tools allow me to imagine and compose new worlds — guided by the same principles of light, form, and emotion that shaped the Golden Age of painting.
Where once a studio, models, costume designers, and elaborate lighting were required, I can now direct a cinematic moment — frame by frame — until the perfect image emerges.
From that image, I move to the traditional process:
• The camera obscura for precise mapping
• The imprimatura to set the tone
• The underpainting in umber and white
• And finally, glazes of colour, breathing life into the vision
Modern technology becomes the new sketchbook — a stage on which the Old Masters are reborn.
A new masterpiece is born
From pixels to paint
This synthesis of past and present transforms imagination into tangible form: an AI-conceived concept, painted entirely by hand in the language of the Old Masters.
The result is art that bridges centuries — not stuck in the past, but inspired by it.
