FIRST PROJECT WORK of 2024 - JANUARY

January 17, 2024 / William Burrell Philpot IV

Here we’re sharing a bit of work that is not covered by NDA or IPR Contract. While we do not share the commissioning client info, we’re more than excited to just share the work developed.

MELANATED WEALTH

IP & PRODUCT GENERATION

Our investigation of Ai Art Generator, Leonardo.Ai. Generation of Sketch Style work to complement the ARTS Quarter proposed work and projects for extended an associated project and product development.

Creating Ai Artwork is a talent based upon Prompt Writing (Directing and/or Engineering). Based upon the purposes of the Art, one must be able to develop prompts to get as accurate as requested and desired art. As we currently use MidJourney (v 5.2), DALL-E, Wombo Dream in conjunction with Chat GPT, we’re able to develop imagery at a fast pace for clients specializing in publication and/or social media development. Most images can be developed for immediate use and publication but most commission works are being used for advertising and impact purposes.

Ai Art Development is mostly about the time to develop images as opposed to needing the skill. For large publication projects, being able to produce images (Illustrations, 3D renders and Photo Quality Images, etc.) in a short amount of time . . . is the niche.

We’re continuing to research and develop new methods in creating images that apply to our mantra of Intelligence, Ethnicity and Innovation. With that, we’re active in working with other creators and artists to generate Art and Products that go beyond the norms.

Stay tuned and continue to check out this newest creative space.

ARTS QUARTER 2024

January 15, 2024 / William Burrell Philpot IV

THE DICHOTOMY OF…

ARTS QUARTER : DEVELOPING NEW ART PROJECTS

The purpose of our Arts Quarter is to spend time researching, cultivating and developing new custom Artworks for branding and retail sale. The intent is to further develop products that are in harmony with our creative beliefs. As we maintain our dedication to classic yet innovative styles that represent and resonate with Communities and People of Color, Ethnicity and Culture, we’re looking to further develop pieces and products that test and enhance our creative capabilities. Prioritizing Environmental Aesthetics and Interior Decor, we’re developing Wall Art pieces that help to appreciate, encourage and inspire the communities we strive to serve and are already a part of.

Adhering to the 2024 theme of “The Dichotomy of…”, our custom works will shed light on Founder and CEO, William Burrell Philpot IV and his cultivated artistic persona; Artist, Designer and Photographer, Liam Ian Black. Showcasing thru work development is the difference between who this one man was versus who he has become. From the extensive varieties of life experiences that have shaped and informed his perspectives and identity, 2024 custom IP projects are to help manifest a number of pieces that reveal his truth as an Black and African American Man within this modern world. Forever ambitiously seeking the next level, quality, value, substance, communication, (as the Entrepreneur and CEO) William Philpot reviews to make a greater leap and transition into that of Liam Ian (as Artist, Designer and Photographer).

With end-game goals of storytelling and filmmaking in mind, 2024 promises to close out the loose ties of an old life to fully realize the next. Focusing more on The Passion of Creating as an African American Man, the artwork, products, projects and services being brought to market this year will assist in reaffirming and strengthening Communities and People of Color, Ethnicity and Culture as an effort to assist those needed answers and perspectives for the future.

Moving forward after 2024, we expect to be moving away from the format of Art and Artwork Development within our business model as to better incorporate other aspects of our business and who we are.

ART DIRECTION

“Created Better Than Well” - © 2024 Liam Ian (LIAM IAN LLC)

Growing up heavily influenced by art styles hip hop and comics, I’m still informed and influenced by such. As we’re living in a time of more, we have too many options. Thru technology but less time, we feel less connected even though there are more connections. There are more artists, creators and influencers with less influence, less creative originality, and less artistic authenticity or the space to be seen and proven as authentic. We have more choices yet less clarity in what truly fits and represents who are as customers, clients, consumers and communities. Our own individualities now often get lost when using products made by others to identify and convey who we are...or think we are.

This Arts Quarter, we’re focusing our efforts to combine different and varying artistic disciplines to address the identities of the modern Person of Color, Ethnicity and Culture. Employing a symbolism to the current and modern social and socio-economic situations of the diverse Communities of Color, we’re developing—and working with other artists to develop—works that transcend the paradigms, perspectives, ideas and concepts of the day. Most prominently is the use of Inspired Abstract Art with Cartoon or Illustration. The effort is to manifest the luxury appeal and application of Abstract Art to levels that are more Urban and base-level as Cartoon and Illustration. This artistic direction adheres to our 2024 theme “The Dichotomy of…”

Our imagery is still to Encourage and Inspire People of Color, Ethnicity and Culture.

LIAM IAN - BUSINESS

While applying some much desired focus on Art, Design and Photography projects, we’re still operating in a multifaceted capacity to serve our Business Service Clients (BSC’s). We’re engaged in supplying Development Services for Entrepreneurial, Small Business and Creative Commercial Projects. Strategic Coaching & Consulting for BSC’s is still being designed to better communicate our principles, values and perspectives as Art and the Art Industries continue to evolve and change especially with the incorporation of technologies and other associated multi-market influences.

LIAM IAN - Ai

With the successful integration of Artificial Intelligence into our operations as to refine the mundane and often redundant tasks required, we’re devising new goals that invite new avenues and opportunities for revenue generation. While on a very human level, we’re applying our attention on the continued development of Artworks and associated products and services, we’ll be using our newest resources to push forward the agendas of doing good business.

LIAM IAN - RETAIL

LIAM IAN DESIGN (Shopify). LIAM IAN LLC on ETSY. LIAM IAN on AMAZON. With a number of retail locations, we’re revising what we’re bringing to market. Strategizing with brands, manufacturers, vendors and affiliate structures, we’re bringing to the forefront what matters most to us; Art, Design, Photography…and much more.

Research Recommendations:

We’ve engaged in an extensive process to research and develop works that cater to the interests of those who appreciate Art at its greatest potential…especially in representing Black and African American People and other People of Color, Ethnicity and Culture within the modern day. We’ve not limited our search to those entities and platforms that are specifically Art oriented but also those that use Art as a way of a refined life.

NEW PROJECT ANNOUNCEMENT: JusTHOUGHTS!

JusTHOUGHTS is—and has been—a standing personal project of mine where I give one, two or a few words and/or phrases that are either my personal opinion, philosophies and/or experience-driven observations.

Preliminary continued development of this project will commence gradually with an intention to be active in 2024.

THANKSGIVING & INDIGENOUS PEOPLES RECOGNITION DAY

November 23, 2023 / William Burrell Philpot IV

Today we—as a business based by and for People of Color, Ethnicity and Culture—are observing the tradition that most people—until recently—have come to celebrate as an American holiday; Thanksgiving, and the day that it should be as Indigenous Peoples Day.

Today we honor the lives that have been slain and lost due to the development and progression of the European exploratory, commercial and capitalist drive to develop this new nation. Thru Art, Design and Photographic-like visiualizations of those lost to history, we take a moment to show our respect to those lost and deprived. Those who lost their land for the sake of who and what we are today.

As matter of honor and respect for the Indigenous and Native American Peoples and others, we will not be using or designing any icon or iconic imagery as we may not be able to fully present them in the context and form that they ought to be. We believe in the right and capacity to use Art, Design and Photography as a means to creating, describing and defining the world and so for us, we’re choosing to establish within our office, studio and other proprietary spaces this day (Thanksgiving Day) to be acknowledged and recognized as Indigenous Peoples Recognition Day for without them, there would be no conception of what Thanksgiving is and what it should be all about.
