Fallen Star: Portrait of Justin Timberlake after DWI

Fallen Star: Portrait of Justin Timberlake after DWI and WTF Siri, why are you claiming my painting was done by a 1700s Scottish painter?

Justin Timberlake After DUI Bust, Zorn palette, oil on paper, 11×7’

There was something so poignant about the news photo of Justin Timberlake after his bust for Driving While Intoxicated and I wanted to capture it in paint. Then something hilarious happened when I was preparing the photo of the painting for posting.

I clicked on the ℹ️ symbol in Apple Photos to make sure the picture I was selecting was the correct version for posting. I noticed a little white dot appeared in the middle of the photo. When I clicked on the dot, Apple AI/Siri told me that this was a painting of Robert Fergusson painted by 1700s Scottish painter, Alexander Runciman. WTF?

WTF Siri?

Yes! It was so wonderful to see you. I’m glad you’re still playing cello. I realized you can see my art but i can’t see (hear) yours. Music is so ephemeral compared to visual art (unless it’s recorded but I’m guessing that’s more unusual than sharing art and writing.). Do you perform with a group?
