Success is mine.

So I have finally taken the plunge and lazy minted a number of my monoprints on Rarible.com I would love it if you go check them out. They are under my pseudonym CakkieLou which is a name my dad and sister gave me as a child and has stuck with me. (for better or worse).

On another note I have been working on a painting that is slowly coming to life, Not sure where it will end up but it is challenging me to think outside of the square a bit with using text. Trying to not make it look clunky. Easier said then done. Let me know what you think of my Sunday afternoons work.

Nothing is as simple as it seems.

So… perhaps I was a little naive but I truly thought becoming a digital NFT artist was a straightforward process . Clint seemed to make it sound simple. “Cath” he said “just set up a digital wallet, sign up to a currency exchange platform, open an Opensea account and then mint an NFT”. How hard could that be.

Well after many stops and starts , I have done all of the above except mint the NFT. Why haven’t I taken the most crucial step you might ask? Well because of a number of reasons which I won’t bore you with but the biggest one is that I am terrified of losing money I don’t have in gas fees and currency exchange and in NOT KNOWING what the hell I am doing. So I am reading article after article and freezing in place. Not sure how to move out of this space, I only know I want to. I never thought of myself as risk adverse until now, but I must admit it’s true. I am scared of not knowing what I do not know.
