My goal lately has been experimenting with NFTs and seeing their potential for art, I have not made any myself, but I am currently messing with a few games and how assets can be used and have additional value or functionality outside of its art, this would let one marry technology with art in a really interesting way, I think.
You guys should check out Farsite, a space RTS game that uses all of its equipment and crafting items as NFTs. IT also happens to LOOK GOOD and play in your browser. Awesome! You can join via this link to get bonus stuff. This game has not started yet, and right now they are giving away starter equipment and special airdrops and bonus items for early sign ups! This is an easy way to get an early headstart on an upcoming NFT game before the ship sails, and more importantly, you can do so for FREE. You will be asked to submit your email, and then choose a password. After doing this, you will receive 1000 points for confirming your email, and then additional points for doing other tasks on the list. This includes inviting friends, interacting with their social media, etc etc. Each time you hit a new milestone, you will receive an item that you will be able to use and equip at launch. Currently, the total points needed to get every bonus item is 100,000, however, this should be relatively easy to acquire. Finally, they are also doing special air drops of additional loot, which, each point you receive increases your chances of receiving an airdrop! These drops will be in addition to your bonus starting items. I believe this is a good looking project, with crisp art, and more importantly, true game functionality. Moreover, the use of NFTs will give the game potential for additional value AND you can get ahead of the curve on it (Looking at you Alien Worlds)

Hey guys, it's been a while but I am currently working on a few big things!
I graduate in Spring, 2021, and paired with my honors project, final exhibition, general schoolwork, and the pandemic, I've sorta fell off from updating and keeping track of my online presence. I am currently working on that, and have been adapting projects for the current normal. So, my current plans are to finish uploading older works to Displate and RedBubble. Please check them out, give me a follow if you can, and see the current submissions, such as the Floral and Nautical design series! There is currently a sale on Displate as well, so it's the perfect time to snag something there! While I am doing this for the next week or two, I plan to post periodically. I will be reviving my Facebook, and focusing on a bi-weekly post on Facebook. I will be posting weekly on this blog, and I plan to do that every Saturday or Sunday. I will also be posting on Pinterest and Instagram more regularly. Once my social media is reinvigorated and back into a part of my routine, I will post more. I am also working on a few BIG projects I can't share yet, but I think people will be excited to WEAR something soon :P THIS WEEK'S GOALS:
You can check out my work on Displate right now, I recently got the Four Elements approved to be on Displate! Displate sells aluminum plate prints for between $44 and $85, depending on the size you want! HOWEVER, if you use the code HOME, you get 27% off your 1st and 2nd poster, and 35% off if you buy 3. That's about 30 bucks for the normal sized one.
Even better, I'm currently getting a 50% commission if people buy through my links! Be sure to check it out here. This is awesome, and I hope you guys will check out my stuff. Unfortunately, Etsy and Displate provide a portion of my current funding. Given the current circumstances, I expect many are avoiding art purchases, and I totally understand, but I wanted to throw it out there anyways. Maybe somebody will find a design that really sits with them! I also have the Floral Design Series, the Dark Horoscopes, and the Nautical Design Series available on Displate! Here at Humble Bundle you can get the COVID 19 Bundle
100% of this bundle goes to charity, please consider donating, the charities being funded include Doctors without Borders, and many others. For $30 you're getting 100% of your money going to charity, and you'll receive just under 50 Steam games, including games like Undertale, Killing Floor 2, etc. This will crucially help those operating to mitigate the damages of Covid, AND it will give each of you a host of games to keep yourselves occupied over the duration of the quarantine! Please continue to stay safe! I'll have a more relevant blog post soon, but I felt this was the most useful thing I could post about currently, for you guys. Everybody check out my Pinterest I am currently working on pinning more, including Original Artwork, Inspirations, Featured Artists, and Art Activities for Kids and Adults alike, my goal is to consolidate some form of entertainment on my Pinterest to help lessen the impact of COVID quarantine on everyone's mental health. Please click through and check it out!
