Ngl it is one hell of a day. Had a fantastic time talking on spaces and getting to know some pretty wonderful artists even better.

I am so bullish on the crypto-art scene. There are so many dedicated leaders in the space who are working toward the greater good.

9) Yeats Song of ...

‘The Burn List’ - spoken word, animated and illustrated NFT poem on Versum. Super happy with the response to this one - over 30 editions sold already! I feel like it resonates with a lot of us because it’s all about making art, being an artist and the nature of art.

Does art for art’s sake exist? How authentic is our work as we try to make a living - and how much of ourselves do we lose in the process?

100 editions at 2 $XTZ each - will be doing a big airdrop for all collectors once we hit ...

Welcome to the TUMBLR resirection.

If anyone can revitalize this wonderful creative space it’s the very real and very valid artists over at Web3. Why?

Well, simply because we are used to tackling social norms and working toward positive change in the greater creative community. What drives many of us is the idea of giving artists a real livable wage and taking out the middle men that take huge profits. Here in Web3 artists are able to be their full creative selves and create beauti...
