I meet Chriscat through Nifty and I had to wait a while till she was free enough to have a chat and here we are she likes ro try different types of art but Il let her explain more .
Hey
Good day sir how art thou?
I am good you ?
Me too for the most part, was in a mad rush lol its recycling day and I lost my 2 step code for wax wallet lol but ill deal with the wax issue later .
Oh how you do that ?
Deleted the screenshot without thinking, but I have the app and it generates codes every 25 sec so I'm assuming I'm suppose to do that? ill try after our interview . My email is attached to the app and my wallet so I'm sure its fine also this is not a catch phrase...its just a 2 step code. Its a password thing...so its not as high security as the catch phrases
That's not to bad were you going to do some work on your NFTs today ?
I do everyday why I need to access my wallet is I need more ram and unstake some CPU lol .
Ah the age old problem RAM and CPU lol?
Yep lol I'm working on those .
Oh nice how long you working on them?
Those new ones I just started up, so I'm guessing 90 mins .
Oh wow that's quick !
I don't really time myself and I have a few on the go all the time. I am adhd lol and yes but that is 90 mins per pic not all 3 .
Oh that makes sense. How long you creating NFTs ?
I started creating NFTs in May so yea I modify selfies of my face with the LAB apps... mirror lab, chrome lab, glitch lab. To animate I use crystliq, and vimage...i was using move pic but not a fan of it
So you started in may and where you collecting NFTs first ?
No, I did not know what an NFT was until a family member started talking about them. It intrigued me so I started up a wallet with shakepay and abra, then signed up for wax as I could see the popularity of it.
I watched some YouTube vids about how to create an NFT and started up my own with the apps I told you about . Galactic Girls was my first white listed collection to take off .
Where you already involved in crypto when you where introduced to NFTs ?
I recently started to create NFTs was the program procreate and I want to go to the next level. I would like to create art from scratch more. I do my abstract fractal and mandala art from scratch but not the selfies.
I was not. I heard about Bitcoin from a few friends on and off over the last 5 yrs but never took big interest in it until I heard about NFTs
I did not find crypto interesting. To me its okay buy stocks, you gain, you lose, keep watching it, much like gambling. I hate casinos lol...no fun in it. I like fun! So when I heard about NFTs and crypto connected to them, well that really struck a cord in me and I was sold otherwise we just sitting here staring at wallet and numbers lol no art
So basically in May I fell down the rabbit hole 😁
Ah and when you decide to start creating did you have a project in mind ?
Aliens, my very first NFT was Alienboy hold on ill show you
Atomichub removed one of my collections and it might have been in that one? I can access it once I get into wax wallet, but my second NFT is there, here it is..
https://wax.atomichub.io/creator/collection/glitchycity2/schema/glitchycity2
I had a collection called scary movie tributes and Atomichub removed it . I made that in glitch lab wow nostalgia lol ❤️ I've leveled up since I started .
What was the idea behind it ?
I was trying to create a gridlock, it is buildings with city lights. That was my first sell outits Billy the Puppet . Billy was my 3rd NFTs ever made .
https://wax.atomichub.io/creator/collection/scaryglitchy
I was so happy with that one, it inspired me to keep going and then I created Galactic Girls.
https://wax.atomichub.io/creator/collection/galacticgirl
How did the community react ?
To galactic girls? My first NFTs they encouraged me to keep pushing myself, they did like them tho. Billy was a take off for me. The Galactic Girls were a good seller, I got a lot of compliments and praises for them and they dig my idea with the concepts. I was going to create prints as well, that come with a little card with details about the galaxy I named her after
Look at Mess87 for example...that one is Messier 87...it is blasting with firey red and orange meteors...much like my Galactic Girl
CosmosRS7 is more stars than meteors, very blue and white, much like my GG
Seyferts are more than galaxy its a string of galaxies and that is why Seyfert has an X on her eyes and flowers, diamonds, multi colors pour out of her head :)
How often do you like to change up your projects ?
Every 1 to 2 months I would say. Lately its been about holidays so I'm focused on holiday NFTs .
Does your design depend on your mood and time of your year ?
Yes! I notice I'm very geared towards space stuff more than anything, love abstract I find creating NFTs help me relax .
I find the crypto community very supportive and loving. No one made fun of me, or judged me when I didn't understand things...everyone has remained calm and patient with me as I glide through the metaverse and ride the wave ❤️ I am grateful
I would like to say my biggest supporters are warped Experience crew and Ov Time from Galactic123.net and TC Dixen, 14neffart ❤️ they my tribe lol
How many NFTs have made would you say ?
I just counted 58 lol
Nice how often do you think you drop one ?
I try to do at least once a week, does not go longer than a month. I recently sold out of the Xmas bulb NFTs. Sold out in 2 days I made 10 of them.
My goal is sell out more often of course .
Nice what has been your favourite to create ?
id say my Glitch and Galactic girls but I'm getting feedback and my audience wants to see something else. They love what I'm doing, but try an animal, or plants, not my face all the time I appreciate feedback I want to know these things :)
I want aim towards my audience and create things they like.
its about them...not me .
I'm eager to go to the next level. I am ready for it .
What one out of the glitch and galactic girls is your favourite?
Illumine for glitch girl . Mess87 for galactic. Its funny you know, I look at them now and see all the flaws I would not create lol back then fine...now...no way .
Oh good news! I am in my wax wallet .
So do you think you have grown as an artist ?
Yes I think so :)
Have you done any collabs ?
I have done one collab
https://wax.atomichub.io/explorer/template/visualartart/244176
It is of a painting from Joshua Gillman called Levi I mirrored it, adjusted the colour filters and added animation
Here is the painting...
And are you open to more collabs ?
Yes id love to . Will Intangible and I have been talking about doing one. He recently started a Meebz collection and wants to put one of NFTs in it. Miggy also wants to do one with me and 14neffart I'm ready whenever they are . I've been thinking about creating a Kenn Bozak NFT because well...we all know they are hot sellers lol :D:
Who is your favourite NFT artist ?
Marcus and Nifty I think? I buy a lot of their NFTs. Also Joyo, and Frans art, Rawr too of course!! There is too many ❤️ I don't think I have a fave, they are all amazing! I'm looking at my inventory now I am seeing a lot of Frans and Marcus NFTs
you know project voodoo?
https://wax.atomichub.io/explorer/asset/1099581719615
That girl .
Yea she is great frauncearts she just keeps getting better and better .
I know ❤️ . So young too I'm proud of her
Is NFTs creation your full time job ?
For the most part yes, I also house clean on the side. House cleaning and landscaping is my own businesses. I work for myself.
Nice so you work your own hours ?
Housecleaner0027
Landscaper0027
They are real businesses. I have clients. I do my own emails, invoices, receipts and the jobs itself. I have not done any landscaping since the pandemic tho, just some house cleaning and NFTs...that is another reason I started the NFTs...I needed to make money during lockdowns.
How does your family and friends feel about your NFTs ?
So far...the amount I put into my wax wallet has tripled since May . They love my art but they don't understand what I'm talking about lol, no interest really . Its like my veganism lol...yep they know but they are not about it .
Ha ha ha . So what you like to do to unwind ?
Create NFTs and watch a YouTube show called slapped ham lol slapped ham is about paranormal, aliens, cryptids, UFOs, strange goings on...but its all real life footage
OUT THERE fascinates me and always has...ever since I was a little girl I thought aliens and space were a cool thing same with ghosts and paranormal stuff. Had a lot of experience I'm an empath, very sensitive to energy waves so I think that comes hand in hand with the paranormal lol, they like to linger around me? I was sober when it happened...I didn't even smoke THC yet
Wow that's quite freaky but cool at the same time so do you believe in ghosts?
I'd be ignorant if I didn't I've had too many experiences to not believe .
What has been the best thing about doing your project ?
YOU GUYS ❤️ My fans my tribe, the community, making friends and learning everything crypto I've grown lots since I started. I am opening up and becoming less shy. It has been rewarding:
What's been the hardest part ?
Understanding the blockchain lol, lots to learn type in address, type in codes, go here, go there, apply apply, wallets, etc....make sense? Such as unstaking too...I will forget how and need to email wax for help
Of course . Where can the community keep up to date with you?
I would say Telegram is my most used, followed by Facebook. I do retweet a lot. Discord is my weakest link .
