Creating and minting an NFT Live!

I had the opportunity to create lines live and it was so much fun.

I used a few prints from my Vogue portfolio and placed vellum over top. I created the lines on the vellum.

We posted the footage to Instagram and made it an NFT, you can find it here

Special thanks to CocoNFT and OVHCloud for providing me with such an incredible opportunity.

NFT's and Me

I made 12 NFT’s available to purchase directly from my Instagram through CocoNFT.

Are you still confused about this world? It is kind of strange to think about the metaverse but trust me it is real and there is an amazing group of people working at helping you realize it.

NFT’s are a way to support an artist and a way to own their art. The artist retains the right and you get the digital version. I have included definitions of all of these terms in this post.

If you have more questions please reach out, it is an amazing new world for artists and I would really love to see the support soar.

All of my NFT’s are created from Instagram posts and tagged with #coconft A quick hashtag search will show you all 12. Yes, you can search hashtags on Insta just add the pound symbol to anything you want to search and it will bring up that specific result.

Crypto is something that was developed to solve a problem and I am in awe of a hacker’s ability to see a problem and provide a solution for it. Have you read Mind Hacking? I highly recommend it, it’s brilliant. Hackers are not to be feared, they are problem solvers and have been from the beginning.

Have you heard of CocoNFT?

They are an app that enables you to sell NFT’s on Instagram.

I have released 12 and you can find them in my Instagram feed with the hashtag #NFT and #COCONFT

Cryptocurrency may seem a bit strange and that’s ok.

For me it is interesting and a way to invest and create another revenue stream for my art.

The steps are easy, you can open a crypto wallet on Metamask add Ether (ETH) to your wallet, the decentralized currency used on Etherum Blockchain.

Ethereum is a decentralized, open-source blockchain with smart contract functionality. Ether is the native cryptocurrency of the platform. Amongst cryptocurrencies, it is second only to Bitcoin in market capitalization. Ethereum was conceived in 2013 by programmer Vitalik Buterin.

Once you have added currency to your wallet you can use it to purchase more cryptocurrency or NFT’s. Try it, have fun. You can invest very little and have a huge return.
