Gm anniversary! 🎉 8 years ago today, 21 Oct 2018, I opened #CryptoDisruption: The Art of Blockchain at the Dundas Street Gallery in Edinburgh. I'd started working on the paintings late 2017, my first foray into creating crypto-themed art. The exhibition featured 12 oil paintings, each incorporating AR videos exploring my early understanding of the emerging crypto space. What an incredible journey it's been! I've experienced the fingernail-biting highs and lows, from the early days with crypto trading (badly!) and pre NFT art platforms, to everything that's happened since. And through it all, I still find this space as inspiring as I did back then. And even with all the drama and controversy, I've come to accept that it's all part of the journey. It is what it is, and I wouldn't trade the experience for anything. Although, having been 'cancelled' 2 or 3 times in the early days, I've definitely got a lot more grey hair to show for it! 😅 I've always considered myself a painter first and foremost but Web3 has opened my mind to possibilities I could never have imagined. It's given me opportunities to explore, experiment, collaborate and push my creative practice in directions I never would have dreamed! Perhaps most importantly, it's introduced me to an incredible community of artists, collectors, technologists, builders and visionaries, all exploring what the next frontier of art, tech and immersive experiences might look like. So thanks to all of you for riding along with me on this rollercoaster! 🙏 After all this time, I'm still learning and just as excited about what's possible. Here's to the next eight years. Can't wait to see where this journey takes us all! 🚀🎨

SOLD 🔥 Dear @RudolfBoogerman It’s an honor to have my work find a new home in your collection. Thank you so much. 🖤 This piece is currently being exhibited at Monochrome, @cycol_gallery, in NYC 🖤

Gifting me artwork without my permission is like walking into my home uninvited and hanging your stuff on my wall. Don't expect me to take it with grace, especially not if I don't like it. Some artists are excused (you know who you are), but in general, DM me first, please.

GM

Willem de Kooning, one of my big favourites. Classic art education and being exceptionally good at realistic drawing/painting, he could break away from that and pave his own way. He's not alone in that of course, but still a high class on his own: theguardian.com/artanddesign…
