retro-modern  expressionism

Retro-Modern Expressionism is an art style that harmonizes the nostalgic charm of mid-century aesthetics with the bold, abstract energy of modern expressionism, crafted with the assistance of artificial intelligence. This style captures timeless scenes—romantic couples, elegant cityscapes, and serene portraits—using vibrant colors, fluid lines, and dynamic brushstrokes. Figures and forms are distilled to their essence, focusing on mood and movement rather than precise detail.

​Retro-Modern Expressionism celebrates the beauty of connection and place, with each AI-assisted piece inviting viewers to experience both familiarity and a fresh, contemporary perspective. It’s a visual dance between past and present, embodying elegance, emotion, and the energy of life in motion.

An abstract painting of a couple locked in a captivating dance, captured with bold and sweeping brushstrokes, embodying the intensity and elegance of their movements.
Now here’s a sight to make a fellow stop in his tracks—a couple swirling around each other like two flames caught in a breeze, each daring the other not to blink. The man’s got his hat tilted just so, looking every bit the rogue, his arm lifted with a flair that says he knows what he’s about. And the lady, well, she’s a whirlwind of curves and color, her gown twisting around her like it’s as alive as she is. They’re both drawn with lines that don’t waste time on fine details, no sir. Just bold strokes that get right to the heart of it.

A glamorous couple strolls through a vibrant, rain-soaked Broadway night, capturing the essence of elegance and old New York charm in a bustling city scene.
Broadway—where the lights shine brighter than a midsummer moon and the air hums with excitement thick enough to feel underfoot. This painting captures a dapper fellow and his elegantly clad companion strolling arm-in-arm beneath the marquee lights, as if they own the whole of the street and every star overhead. He’s dressed in a sharp suit, with a fedora perched just so, while she’s adorned in pearls and a feathered hat, her fur stole draped luxuriously over her shoulders. They seem to glide along, undisturbed by the bustle around them.

There she sits, a portrait that ain't quite right, yet somehow perfect all the same.

Her face is half mystery and half plain truth, as if she’s pondering some profound secret, but she’s not about to tell you, not for love or money.
