Blank Canvas

Welcome to Blank Canvas.

It’s the year 2030, and you’re an optimistic new-grad artist chasing your dreams in New York City. As you navigate financial burdens, the rise of AI-generated art, and the pressures of working in a competitive studio, you’ll struggle to find balance between survival and creativity.

Each choice you make — from paying your bills to deciding whether to embrace or resist using AI to make your life easier — shapes not only your career but also your sense of identity as an artist. Will you stay true to your passion, compromise your ideals to keep the lights on, or explore different perspectives?

In a world where technology blurs the line between inspiration and imitation, your journey explores what it truly means to be an artist in the modern day.
