Bio
Hello! I'm an aspiring artist currently learning to draw decently and perform magic on photoshop for POAP artworks. John Howe and Alan Lee are my inspirations; because they use one pencil to rule 'em all!
What are your thoughts on the NFT world?
The NFT world symbolises empowerment of artists and creatives. Art has never been more accessible to the masses until NFTs and never so intertwined with people's identities or social life. NFTs has made people adopt art into their lives in ways previously not thought of e.g. wearing a favourite NFT on a shirt, or smart watch. And the fact that it's not a right-click saved image, the ownership of the NFT, transforms the relationship we have with the artwork into something deeper.
How can DAOs help art and artists?
The best thing about DAOs is how anyone can grow to become an artist as long as they want to. In the gaming and film industry, an artists' qualifications, portfolio and work experiences matter and is often required for them to get the job. In DAOs, there's room to grow and acquire the portfolio and experiences while rubbing shoulders with industry players.

What does it mean to be an artist in bDAO?
BanklessDAO has given me invaluable opportunities as an aspiring artist. I have never found the courage to seriously draw in pre-DAO days. My hand-me-down tablet sat in my drawer for two years, untouched and neglected until DAOlife happened. I had never used Procreate and was totally clueless about photoshop brushes. BanklessDAO gave me a reason to discover these magic and grow.
