We use AI to help you learn and grow. But we'll never let AI-generated images compete with human creativity, or let your art train someone else's AI.
It's not about being anti-tech. It's about being pro-artist.
AI models scraped millions of artworks from the internet without permission
Zero compensation to artists whose work trained these models

UK law doesn't clearly grant copyright to AI-generated images
Use AI as a tool for learning and growth. That's what it's good for.
Use ChatGPT, Claude, etc. to research concepts, art history, techniques
e.g., "Hey ChatGPT, tell me about Renaissance painting techniques"
Get feedback, suggestions, and guidance from our built-in AI mentor
e.g., Mentor helps you improve your composition and color choices
Use AI-suggested color harmonies to enhance your own work
e.g., AI suggests complementary colours based on your artwork
Use Topaz or similar to upscale artwork you created
e.g., Upscale your 2K illustration to 4K for print
We're protecting human creativity. These use cases don't make the cut.
Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion output cannot be licensed
Why? Trained on copyrighted art without artist consent
Starting with AI output and painting over it
Why? Still derivative of AI-generated content
Using AI to copy another artist's distinctive style
Why? Copyright infringement and unfair to original artists
Generating images as visual references instead of using real art
Why? Use actual artwork with proper Harvard references instead
So buyers know exactly what they're getting. No surprises.
100% human created artwork
Human created with AI research assistance

AI-generated content — cannot be licensed
Unlike Instagram/Meta (who use your photos for AI training by default), we don't. Your artwork will never be used to train AI models without your explicit, informed consent. And even then, only if you want to.
Your art is never used for AI training
Unless you explicitly opt in
This is how AI should work for artists. Our Mentor AI helps you learn, improve, and grow. It gives feedback on your work, suggests improvements, and teaches you new techniques.
It doesn't create art for you. It helps you create better art yourself.
Mentor AI
AI that teaches, not replaces
Your art, your rules, your money. No AI scraping. No AI competition.
