Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs)
You can find me on Foundation & OpenSea!
I also accept requests on ReComet!
The above are currently the only places where I will actively offer NFTs.
Other NFT pages/galleries selling my work under my name or otherwise are not mine.
Kindly contact me (via Discord or email) if you find any!At this time, I'm not dabbling in NFTs. There are a few listings, with my art on FND, but I'm not putting new art up for sale. I plan to return to my ocean series eventually.
Controversial Topics
My opinions on controversial topics may differ from yours.

About NFTs
I realize there is a lot of hate around this topic, and if this is where we part ways, then may your sails be filled with the warmest of winds. But if you're open-minded, do some research before hopping on the hate bandwagon that doesn't read past the glaring headlines. I support NFTs because they're a way for artists to make money and obtain royalties on future sales.

About AI Generated Images
I do not support any form of AI-generated "art". It's not art. The generations are made from stolen, human-made art. An AI prompt engineer is not an artist. An artist has a deep understanding of their work. If you think this is gatekeeping, you're delusional; it's labor exploitation. Nobody's stopping you from picking up a pen and drawing. An AI cannot learn like a human would. It does not have human-level comprehension and cannot be inspired in the same way.Please do NOT feed my art into any AI to train it.Art is supposed to be made by humans, it's to have soul, creativity, life. Humans learn from the world they live in and add their own flare to their art. They get inspired, not just visually, but through other forms of media like music and lore. A machine cannot do that. It can only spit out what was fed into its dataset. Additionally, as it is right now, both public and paid datasets are not ethically sourced. Nobody asked anyone if they could use our art to "train" AI... and now it's a commercial product that artists do not profit from."Your art is on the internet, so it's free for anyone to use."
It's up here so y'all can enjoy it, not use and abuse it. That's not how law works. DMCAs, takedowns, and copyright exist for a reason. It's only a matter of time.
