What is in the picture.
Every poster is painted from a written brief. This is the one Bourbon Street was drawn from.
- The view
- Street level at a Bourbon Street corner, looking down the narrow one way canyon of the block toward a strip of open sky.
- The subject
- A three story stucco corner building in ochre and shrimp pink, two tiers of cast iron lace galleries, louvered shutters, ferns in hanging baskets, a bracketed gas lantern burning.
- The light
- Half an hour after sunset, sky still violet, gas flames and warm window light picking out the iron lace against darkening stucco.
- Behind it
- Receding faces of Creole townhouses in muted rose, grey green and cream, simplified to flat planes of shutter, balcony rail and chimney.
- The distance
- Flat haze blue silhouettes of Quarter rooflines stepping down, with the blocky towers of the business district beyond them under open sky.
On a wall.
Mounted and framed, lit by each room’s own light.
The print itself.
Paper
250 gsm museum-quality matte, acid-free, with a light natural texture that suits flat colour.
Sizes
12 x 16", 18 x 24", 24 x 36", framed or unframed. The two smaller sizes are 3:4 and the largest is 2:3, so each is composed for its own shape rather than cropped from the other.
Printing
Produced to order by the press nearest the delivery address and shipped flat or framed. The artwork is upscaled before it goes to press, never generated large.
How it was made
A language model writes the composition brief and a diffusion model paints the artwork. The house style, palette, depth rules and typesetting are ours, applied the same way to every poster. The titles are never painted; they are composited afterwards as vector outlines.
