NFT & DIGITAL ARTIST BEEPLE

Digital artist Beeple, who became the first NFT artist to have work sold at Christie’s – for $69 million – is here to inspire you!

Mike Winkelmann (aka Beeple) a graphic designer from Charleston, SC, USA who does a variety of digital artwork including short films, Creative Commons VJ loops, everydays and VR / AR work.

One of the originators of the current "everyday" movement in 3D graphics, Beeple has been creating a picture everyday from start to finish and posting it online for over ten years without missing a single day.

He became one of the most expensive living artists in the world when he sold Everydays: The First 5,000 Days (2021) at Christie’s for $69 million. The sale was groundbreaking: Not only had the work fetched such a price, the piece also effectively induced NFT fever within the art world.

In this career talk, Beeple talks about:

- His creative process and where he finds inspiration;
- Motivation and the discipline of daily art;;
- Dealing with self-criticism as an artist;
- How deadlines drive his efficiency and self-management;
- Social media as a means of distribution and exposure for 3D artists;
- The importance of learning and adapting;
- And so much more!

Beeple also talks about the difference – in inspiration, motivation and creative freedom – between your personal artwork and commercial work. When you choose to be a professional artist, you become an artist-for-hire. Which means that the client has the final say. Which is why it is so crucially important to do your personal work.

No matter your medium, if you’re a working artist -- or aspire to be one – you must check out this Allan McKay interview with Beeple! Your inspiration awaits!

Thank you for your videos mate.< I will advice traders especially' newbies to have orientation of trading before they get involved in it because the STOCKs/Cyrpto market has been unstable, Forget predictions and start making a good profit now because future valuations are all speculations and guesses. when news gets bearish start buying. "Keep it simple" That correction was the best thing that happened me. But all thanks to Nathan Chui, who taught me how to make trade and increased my Crypto from 3 to 11BTC now. No one really knows what is going to happen in the market and I know you are only saying what you think will happen based on the past. It is yours and my opinion so people should make their own Investment choices based on their own research…
