Shownotes
New host Lena Robinson kicks off with a lively chat with fellow Kiwi and seasoned creative Anna Cowie, who's now making waves from Cambridge. They dive into Anna's eclectic career journey—from her days at Elam Fine Arts School in New Zealand to her evolution into a digital fine artist and senior creative director. The conversation is a fun mix of art, tech, and creativity, with Anna spilling the beans on how she’s always viewed the computer, and more recently, the iPad and Apple Pencil, as just another set of pens, pencils and canvas to play with.
Anna also gets into the nitty-gritty of how AI has worked its way into her studio, not as a rival, but as a muse and collaborator. AI is pushing boundaries, speeding up her creative processes, and adding a new layer of inspiration, all without ever stepping on the toes of her artistic integrity. While AI can add a spark, Anna insists it can't replace the keen eye and emotional depth that only a true artist brings to the table. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about how AI and technology is shaking up the art and design world in the best way possible.
