I’ve earned $506.41 from the project so far if I look at it in USD equivalent for the day. This number fluctuates with the rise and fall of the crypto’s market value. All crypto I earn I am hodling. (Which means holding on to, not selling).
I believe that what you give your money to, you give power to and so supporting the crypto art community is really important to me. Since the start of the project on November 17, I have purchased 12 nfts! Equalling about $197.33 if you were to compare it to USD.

8 on the NFT Showroom (581.2 SwapHive - $69.74)
My strategy for presenting and promoting this project was to go wide. I want it to be seen by as many people as possible, both in and out the crypto art space. Using blogging, videos, & photos, I’ve put the content on 14 different platforms.
Marketplaces: Rarible / NFT showroom
Social: Twitter / Instagram / Sharesome / OnlyFans / Facebook / Discord / Bigo
Videos: YouTube / 3Speak / DTube
My original goals were to highlight the story and messages contained within each piece. To show the progress of my work, and to uncover subconscious messages.
I also originally wanted for the pieces to become more than collectibles in a wallet. I still hope they eventually get used as album art or something cool like that!
Changes - #1 in the Story Series
After releasing the first piece I realized the magnitude of the project and created as much space as possible so I could focus. I have a tendency to take on many projects at once, so it has taken a conscious effort to keep my focus narrowed in. This has turned into a body of work and I honestly feel excited to create it!
I’m telling the story of my art to make visible the true value of each piece. To show the countless hours of effort and skill that goes into everything I make. If I don’t show the world that, then who will? If I don't establish its value, then I’m likely to wait a very long time, if ever, for someone to do that for me. I know my work is valuable and it is my mission to make that clear, with hopes that I may stand out as an artist in this space. It’s also a powerful exercise in confidence and clarity!
Analyzing each piece has given me a fuller perspective of myself and my life. We move fast from one project to the next. All life’s facets compete for our attention, so art pieces and projects don’t get a cool down phase, where one can chill and process. For me releasing this series has been a mix of both new creations & momentum… but also pause & retrospection. There is what feels like a nice balance overall in this project.
Alter Ego - #2 in the Story Series
The deeper wealth :
It’s been cathartic telling the story of my art. I’ve created over 50 pieces of physical art- paintings and vinyl in the past 2 years. I never paused to make sense of it all. I just kept creating. This project gives me a chance to reflect back on my work. Taking the time to self reflect through the presentation and documentation of my art has been a transformative experience.
I am creating proper documentation of my work.
Creating flows for content creation!
During the creation of this project, processes have emerged which I hope to share with others.
Bringing my physical art into the crypto/digital art space.
I’m improving skills in : writing, blogging, video editing, photo editing, process development & overall communication.
