Lotus Blooms + RGBMTL Curator Debut + Emporium Printify Launch + GBM Update
Lotus Blooms is now live on LunaLauncher and sitting right on the front page. It is a limited 13-edition ordinal paired with a physical print. I created the piece with Grok helping on the initial direction and then hand-painted the final version in Procreate while staying deep in Voluptechne themes. You mint the ordinal and can claim for extra the matching physical print at the same time. These will be the only physical prints that ever exist for this work.

The higher the bid, the higher the reward. This turns auctions into an event where everybody wins. The platform fee is only 2% as well, so it's one of the best win/win/win models I've seen.

Cusp of Rebirth V1 Reveal
This year for my birthday I decided to start a new tradition to break my birthday curse once and for all in which I create an open call for art to put together a Metaverse gallery and party. The theme of this open call I decided should be centered around the astrological themes of my birthday ~ Cusp of Rebirth.

Flesh and Metal
I have been staring at this new piece that I created with Grok for hours now, her curves melting into that iridescent chrome exoskeleton while space cracks open like a glitchy orgasm all around them.

Rant on Generative Art Hate
I’ve been an artist my entire life. I have a BFA and a long history of creation, so whether I’m a “real” artist is not up for debate in my mind.
