So I've fallen down an obscure digital rabbit hole and found myself in a place that claims to appreciate content in a way that pricks the ears of any artist - cash (even if crypto and phenomenally complex).
I'm a content creator by trade and a budding digital artist by night (in bud phase for about 10 years now 🙄). I illustrate, paint, photograph, design and all the other stuff people mostly consider #pretentious and #trendy these days, but if it counts, I've been at it since I was considered a nerd for it (down inner #hipster, down!).
On another note, I'm also currently working on being another stereotype: #health freak.
#allergic to most everyday things like bread and milk, I've given it all up (wheat, dairy, caffeine, vinegar, sugar and apparently sanity) and embarked on a journey to still feed myself against the odds. Stay tuned and you will probably hear more about my unfulfilled #chocolate cravings, withdrawal symptoms and hey, maybe even successes if we're lucky!
Oh, I'm also from a #village in South Africa called #Durban. Okay, so it's one of our three major cities, but there's one highway that takes you everywhere, nobody's heard of "work ethic" and mostly everyone knows each other within little racial cliques, so village it will be.
Wow, did you notice I like to rant a lot? 'Coz I just did. Oh well.
HELLO EVERYBODY! I look forward to getting to know you and sharing something great.
Hello welcome to steem 👌
Wow, that second picture is sick! How long does it take to do one of those? Maybe you could make a video progress of such a drawing for @dtube?
Going to resteem you via @welcoming, my page for showcasing promising newcomers!
Greets, @theaustrianguy
Hey, gosh thanks so much! It takes between 3-6 hours and I'd love to do a video! Not too familiar with dtube yet but will definitely have a look! Am definitely following :D
Hi and welcome to steemit. You've got some great artwork there and if you stick at it here you can make some cash yes. Even if you don't make any money it is a great community, oh and good luck with the health kick.
Hey! Thanks for the welcome! Yup I'm looking forward to it!
no worries, have a good night / day where you are : )
Dude your art is amazing! And your writing is full of personality (does that make sense? Haha) I hope you post more art 'cause I'm looking forward to that! I'm new here, too.
Aw thanks so much! Yes it makes sense I have been told I'm a tad melodramatic, but all the more fun 😂
Wow,
Welcome to steemit.
It's a fast growing community.

Keep steeming.
Thank you!
Hey welcome!
Great job and welcome to Steemit. This place is a great community and while the rewards are nice the genuine conversations and relationship building are the truly great thIngs here. It's definitely not the same atmosphere as the other platforms I have been involved in..
I wouldn't worry too much about the labels and just stick to doing what you love regardless of how it classifies you.
Im following back. Again welcome to Steemit. I hope you have a great day.
