Click Here for Hidden Depths

Click Here for Hidden Depths comic by Joe Chiappetta Click Here for Hidden Depths is a Silly Daddy comic by Joe Chiappetta released as rare digital art on MakersPlace.
This particular Silly Daddy cartoon is inspired by real life, but my kids never actually had such a funny conversation. Instead this comic came about entirely in my head. It is a way for me to process the fact that, like everyone else (self included), sometimes my kids are very deep in their thinking, and sometimes not at all.

As a parent, I often want to get quickly to the heart o...

Hidden Treasure in the ArcadeA Star Chosen short story by Joe Chiappetta
It was the day before all the books in the world were destroyed. Historians would be discussing this day for ages to come. Yet most people had little regard for the day before all the books were destroyed. How could they? History had been literally erased in a...

The Art-Arcade Atmosphere on Blockchain

The Art-Arcade Atmosphere on Blockchain by Joe Chiappetta
The Art-Arcade Atmosphere on Blockchain is rare digital art available on MakersPlace.
The Art-Arcade Atmosphere on Blockchain:
Commending Good Crypto Galleries and Gaming Projects
Every complex ecosystem comes with many diverse and rapidly operating parts. It is a fragile balance. Think of one button in a video game arcade. Remove that button from the game, and game play is ruined. Besides, not many could wire that button back into the game effectively. Now add such sensitivity to the complexit...

Once Upon a Time in Pasadena

Once Upon a Time in Pasadena is rare digital art by Joe Chiappetta Once Upon a Time in Pasadena is rare digital art available on MakersPlace.
Once upon a time in Pasadena, I found an American bridge to Mediterranean delights.
I found that every street can be more amazing than the next.
I found that a mountain backdrop makes everything wonderful.

Once upon a time in Pasadena, I found whales of fortune riding waves of home pricing.
I found all that glitters is not gold... it's also wildfire, sushi and real estate.
I found that fancy cars--both old and new--are as co...

Beach Perspective

Beach Perspective is rare digital art by Joe Chiappetta Beach Perspective by Joe Chiappetta is available as rare digital art on MakersPlace.
"Beach Perspective" is crypto art that takes the concept of disguise to deep and dizzy levels! Welcome to some very experimental artwork. It is my favorite kind to make. It is art that says, "Go to the beach," in the same breath as it also declares, "Make digital art," while also promoting a powerful message through the reading of comics!

This is what happens when I combine more than a few of my favorite things...

Silly Daddy Costs Money

Silly Daddy Costs Money is a rare digital art comic on MakersPlace by Joe Chiappetta Silly Daddy Costs Money is available on MakersPlace as rare digital art.
I love my children. That's what parents do. In the course of that love, money (much money) will be spent on them, providing for their needs and getting them extra gifts. This also is a typical fact of parenting.
Yet since no parent is made entirely of money, we need to be frugal about when to spend money on our kids, and when to get things done without spending money. Such is the context of a recurring conversation that I'...

Blind Demon of Crypto Art

Blind Demon of Crypto Art is rare digital art by Joe Chiappetta The Blind Demon of Crypto Art is available on MakersPlace as rare digital art.
Cryptocurrency, as well as artwork related to cryptocurrency (also known as Crypto Art), are both relatively new innovations. Much excitement--as well as controversy--follows them almost wherever they go. Indeed, cryptocurrency, crypto art, and the blockchains they revolve around, hold remarkable promise for opportunity. While I am a fan of these advancements in economics and the art delivery ecosystem, I must...

Jam to the Pasadena Pops by Joe Chiappetta Jam to the Pasadena Pops is rare digital art available on MakersPlace.
As an orchestra celebrating, preserving, and performing music from the Great American Songbook, a night with the Pasadena Pops is a night to remember! Thanks to my friend Jim Fenton, whose company, City National Bank is a sponsor, my wife and I had the true pleasure of seeing the Pasadena Pops deliver tunes that never failed to move the heart and bring a healthy dose of nostalgia and inspiration to all attendees. Held at th...

LA Dodger Woman

LA Dodger Woman by Joe Chiappetta LA Dodger Woman is rare digital art by Joe Chiappetta on MakersPlace.
My wife and I went to a Los Angeles Dodgers game this summer. It was our first time in their stadium and we really enjoyed our time at the ball park. They have many photo opportunity spots within this pro baseball stadium surrounded by scenic Southern California mountains. 
One of the coolest indoor spots we found was a collection of historic ball park signs that really take you back in time in a cool way. This drawing s...
