30/01/2023 rant
AI-generated images (or music, stories, or movies) are not Art. They are Theft. After months of ranting about this problem with whoever was so unlucky to be near me, many, many other artists raise their voices.

Bio
Elena “Greenedera” Zambelli
I’m a digital and traditional artist, class 1986, living in Verona, Italy. I work as a graphic designer, but painting is my real love. My work is usually the result of mixed media tecnique, with pencil/ballpen sketch and then digital painting.
- I began my artistic journey with traditional media (pencils, ballpen, watercolors, acrylics), as a self-taught artist
- Since 2010 I started experimenting with mixed media and digital painting (photoshop + Wacom tablet)
- During 2020, the lockdown provided me with a lot of time to dedicate to self-training and experimentation, allowing me to level up my paintings. I published many Dragonlance-themed fanart, and one was shared by fantasy author Margaret Weis, granting me the interest of the Dragonlance fans.
- Since then I paint for myself, striving to improve always, but I also take commissions for digital fantasy art, working with my clients to create something special.
- In 2021 began my collaboration with the Dragonlance Nexus for illustrations in their D&D manuals, published on DungeonMasterGuild.com, still going on.
- I worked with Lawful Stupid RPG, DMofNone, Raogen Games and several others, like podcasts or authors like Richard Knaak.
