38. @izzypollack and @andrewwang met me in a park in NYC. We shared a beautiful experience where Izzy helped an old woman find her way home. The emotion around that act tied us together, & I see it reflected in everything they do here. They inspire me to be a better human.
21. @jaccourtney solved my @braindrops_art Genesis puzzle. Created it to find someone with a mind that worked like mine, & she found me. We met irl. We have similar pasts, hopes, & drives. She’s an incredible person, & an incredible friend. I’m privileged to watch her soar.
19. @thankyouX & I had a rocky start—stressed, I was a total jerk to him over an event. He responded with grace, & later, invited me into his curated show with Sothebys, which was a life highlight reel. The generosity was more than I deserved, & changed the course of my career.
14. @supergremplin was an early friend. His style was unique, dark, & playful, & I was thrilled when he made a piece of @artchick and me. He surprised me with a custom @cryptoadzNFT, & I gave him “swarm,” an early mint. His passion for CC0 inspires me. Am grateful to know him.
12. @justinaversano, @gmoneyNFT, & @saveartspace gave me the chance to get 1629 into the world—first Miami, then NYC, near the MOMA. Justin’s generosity is legendary. We traded work early last year: Persephone at the Shore for The Hierophant. His friendship has meant the world.
7. @monk36kfu bought my 1st portrait of 1629, & traded a mooncat for a commission of one of his punks. When I struggled to sell work at .1, I RAISED my prices to 1 ETH. Monk was the 1st to buy. That belief was a turning point—kickstarted my career. So grateful for his friendship.
Haven't had time to finish my cyber gallery, so gonna go ahead and share my tezos collection so far. 6 pages in and about a billion to go. https://t.co/t0jXS4cSIu Pictured here: @dashxxxcrash, @WisesaAntonio, @rare_force1, @JimiWen 🌟
