Meet the artist Aquascapeart
I have to say the WAX community is amazing this artist was recommended by another artist who I would like to say is a friend so glad he total me about them there work is brilliant very relaxing .
Hey man how you ?
Pretty good, I just got home from work and just finished eating a burger .
Nice will you do any work on the project tonight ?
I have already prepared one in the afternoon and created the template, I just need mint .
Oh nice . So how did the project start ?
My main passion is aqua scaping. my works are inspired by this magnificent art. do you now aqua scaping?
Is that water painting ?
Aqua scaping is the art of underwater gardening. The starting point are above all the photos of my planted aquariums. then there is the editing phase to create the NFT .
Oh wow that's sounds quite cool . So why did you decide to starting them as NFTs?
I got to know the crypto world thanks to an exchange. I got curious and joined several telegram groups where we talk about crypto. I immediately became interested in play to earn (I still play ...) and then I came across the fantastic world of NFT . I don't remember exactly how I got there but, thanks to a telegram group on p2e, I met the wax blockchain and I fell in love with it. when I thought about what I could create, I didn't hesitate: aqua scaping, my passion (did I mention that already?)
And why did you pick WAX as the blockchain for you ?
Because I saw that a nice community has been created that allows everyone to buy or sell NFT . You don't have to be rich to buy or sell a small piece of art and it great to be apart of WAXFAM .
What is the idea behind your project ?
The idea is to make known the beauty of aqua scaping through the graphic processing of photos, trying to highlight the peculiarities of the individual elements. I'm currently focusing a lot on moving photos. I like it very much and I'm also having a good result on the market.
When did you launch the first NFT ?
In December of last year. I still didn't know if they would like them. I must say that although the current ones are much more elaborate, I have sold more copies of my first NFTs I found it incredible .
What was the first one you dropped ?
It's called "matrix". I don't remember exactly how I did it but this was my first NFT and the one I most sold .
How did the community react ?
Very good. think that, even now, it is at the top of my little personal sales chart. I still have some for sale. Now I am evolving towards more complex works but I am very attached to the matrix and I am already thinking about a remake.
How many NFTs have you created since?
Currently, the collection consists of 2 schemas: dreamaqua and futurescape. "Dreamaqua's idea is to highlight the characteristics of the individual components for aquascaping, through a slight photographic editing. "Futurescape", on the other hand, represents the fusion of the elements of the scape according to a futuristic vision, through an elaborate editing operation. Currently, I have 6 templates on dreamaqua schema and 61 templates on "futurescape".
What has been your favorite to create ?
This forest stream. I really like how I managed to give movement to the photo almost to make it look like a video but it is not. It is all very natural. every movement created feels natural.
How do you create your NFTs?
As I told you, the starting point is made up of photos of my aquarium plants. Then I use different editing programs depending on the effect I want to create and the elements to highlight
How many programs you say you use ?
Mostly Photoshop and Animate .
Have you done any collabs yet ?
Yes, I'm starting a collaboration with "ilovecryptos", alias "thefreecryptoguru", who you already know. It helped me a lot (and it still does) and, together with aizmonsterss, we have created our own social groups (discord, above all) through which we have created a community in which to make our works known. Aizmonsterss introduced me to her mentor, thefreecryptoguru.
Do you collect NFTs ?
Yes, I think this helps a lot for the growth of the whole community .
Do you have a favorite artist ?
You know, I have recently been in the world of NFT and I have already seen several interesting projects on wax, all different but I am currently focused on my collection and collaboration with ilovecryptos and aizmonsterss.
What has been the best part of doing your project ?
Spread the beauty of nature and receive acclaim for my works .
What has been the hardest part ?
The most difficult part is also the most stimulating one because I always try to create something new, different from the usual NFTs that are sold on the market. I'm not interested in creating commercial NFTs. Creating NFT is just a hobby, not a job for me.
How long does each NFT take to create ?
It depends. Sometimes I spend a few hours, sometimes a few days. Only when I have achieved a satisfactory result, I create the template
What does your family think of your project ?
They know my passion for aqua scaping and have always supported me. For the NFTs, initially they were skeptical but then when they noticed the time and passion I dedicate as well as the positive feedback of the community, they are encouraging me in my work
Have you brought anyone into the wax world ?
Not yet but I'm working on it. now, I'm introducing the wax world to my friends. You know, I live in a provincial country and there's not much openness to the crypto world. They only see it as a danger .
What do you like to do to unwind ?
When I come home tired or when I have problems, I start handling my aquarium and relax. it is a flow that isolates you from everything. is fantastic.
Tell us something random about you ?
I have an Instagram account where I place my aqua scaping works and, lately, also the NFT for sale on Atomichub and Neftyblocks . I also recently opened a twitter profile dedicated exclusively to the promotion of my NFT . I still have few followers but I hope they will increase in the next few days
