I tried it once on one of the more environment friendly platforms, because I was curious. I am really into SiFi and I can imagine how the world will develop more and more into the VR direction and so I wanted to see what is happening and can be happening in a few years. But for now and for me I think it is time to wait, because I could not find a platform that is as environment friendly as possible while having active users, easy minting method and an intuitive interface/serach and so on. I don't know to me it feels all to early to being an option. But this a very subjective opinion, I don't know much about this big theme.

I had the same concerns with the carbon footprint but Im beginning to see NFTs as becoming essential to the future of the art biz and online marketing as social media is today. I think that there are a lot of resources and interest being generated to investing more into reducing the carbon footprint and suspect that it will be dramatically reduced within a few years. I think now is the time to get our feet wet and become experts in this field to take advantage of the rising tide.

Is that the error that 'comment has been removed?' I get that too, but only when the comment in the chain is behind the 'See more replies' drop down.
Marc Spagnuolo
Yes. I think that is the same for me too. Katey is already on it!

Anyone Making NFTs?
Just curious to see how many here are jumping in on the NFT market. What do you all think about NFTs and how are you using them in your work?

I'm loving this community already! With so many creative and ambitious people in one place it's like a super charge to my own creative ambitions. I can't wait to connect with and learn from everyone.

Same! And also there is no messaging system but you would definitely love this given your YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/ThwuT3_AG6w (might be good to listen to in the background while you paint) <3 I have been watching your videos and am curious how amazing you would do with human faces in abstraction! (Or any topic whether representational or not). I am sorry you were hit by a car last year. Don't be too hard on missing goals, sometimes we set gigantic ones. Do not stop, but rather keep your heart light! Too much self reflection may just take its toll. <3

Gouache is one artistic practice I have yet to try just yet but I have always loved the look of it.

It's pretty unique and finicky, but very fun once you get used to it.
Alec Brubaker
looking forward to seeing the progress!
Marc Spagnuolo
Thanks! I've already added more to it but I want to work on it a bit more before I post an update on it. I should hopefully get some more work in on it later today!

Hey hey Proko Team! Just a heads up, whenever I get a notification of a comment added to a discussion I've started or am engaged in it give me an error when I click on it. I have to go find my post to see the comment that's been added.

Hey there fellow aspiring artists! Just wanted to jump into the mix here and simply share what I’m working on this morning. Up until this project I’ve merely been dabbling at sculpting here and there not really knowing what to make. Last night I decided to start this bust of an alien creature I found on Pinterest. The original artwork this creature is based on was created by an artist that goes by Pascal Sguera on art station. Ive never watched any content on sculpting or how to sculpt yet but definitely will be diving into what’s available on this site to learn more. As the title of the post says I feel like this is my first real attempt and sculpting. It should be fun to see how it turns out! Here’s a link to the original artwork and artist https://www.artstation.com/artwork/l4b4z
