I'd like to share some art delivered to my subscribers since joining
A total of 6 collections, 28 drops, 2 physical artworks, 6 x 1/1 digital paintings
Beneath the Surface a fusion of physical & digital techniques

The self discipline and drive required for Artists to continue to produce high quality artwork is something for which I have huge admiration. Imagine then, how vulnerable the artist is when they release their work for public scrutiny.
All these Artists deserve Respect.
Dev teams alone, do not make a successful NFT project. They rely on an engaged community. Strength comes from reflecting, reviewing, listening to feedback. Then pivoting to drive the project forward.

I have supported countless artists with mentoring, advice, care, and consideration. I have donated countless artworks to communities and individuals. I have endlessly and selflessly supported other artists.

Time to shed some light on my 1/1 art acquisitions. I by art that I like. I buy art to support artists both well known and less well known emerging artists.

A tremendous 12 months connecting with wonderful people and a gallery full of incredible art.
Times change, so for the foreseeable future my focus will be on creating rather than collecting art.
Appreciate all artists and collectors, thanks kindly!
Heartening to see many collectors looking to support those artists new to Solana, but let's not forget there have been a bunch of artists who never left! 🤝 🐠
Rich and diverse talent abounds in the 1/1 space on Solana. If you take the time to browse
@exchgART

@formfunction
or
@collector_sh
makes for a wonderful journey of discovery. A good way to get started is to follow some of the better known Artists in the space.
There is a lot to admire about an artist who sells a piece then immediately invests some of their gains back into 1/1 art.
Support artists who support you.
Today I hit a milestone!
Extremely grateful to all the artists who pour their heart and soul into creating magnificent Artworks. I love supporting 1/1 artists on Solana.
I am thrilled to join

as a creator and look forward to sharing art with my subscribers each month.

My preferences?
Now that would be telling! 🤫
Good people here are fatigued, on the sidelines or left the ecosystem. Is Solana the problem?
Three factors I have observed.
Too big, too small, too hard.

I am extremely proud to bring to you my first series, which will be launched on Exchange Art over the coming weeks. In the following thread I share with you how it came to be.
It is my hope that any interactions I have had in the space have left a positive imprint.
A salient lesson of life

Above all, value yourself.

When I look at an artwork I like to study the artist's previous works. Why? It reveals the evolution and growth of the artist. The confidence that has been gained. This I love to see.
Keep striving. And thank you all. 💜

The unsung heroes of Solana are those underrated, underappreciated artists who share and collect the work of their peers, whether they spend .1 or 10 Sol is irrelevant. They value others.
These are the people I admire.

I've seen a few posts lately acknowledging some great collectors in the space, and rightly so.
Over the last few months, I've witnessed the enormous contribution made by the "bread & butter" collectors, as well as our peers in helping sustain the space. Some names you'll know,…

Recently I had the the unpleasant experience of my motives being questioned. As a person who prides myself on integrity and honesty it has caused me great angst and rocked my confidence. It seemed that my efforts to be open, honest, fair, and enthusiastically inclusive were…
It is abundantly clear to me, that you have to be part of a clique to get on in this community. You have to be ruthless in pursuit of success. You have to cultivate connections and stroke egos.
I march to the beat of my own drum and have experienced the consequences.
👇
It's easy to get swept up in the idea that art is going to sell much easier in these market conditions. Fact is it's still really tough for most artists. But that's no reason not to continue to strive to produce your best art. Trust. Yourself. Be proud if your work.

No one can argue with the fact it's a bear situation. But so far the sky has not fallen in.

Solana has great art.
And just like traditional galleries, all other chains have great art too.
Artists mint their work across a number of platforms for a variety of reasons. Collectors acquire art across those platforms for a variety of reasons.
