Celebrating the year 2021: Karrie Ross, I am a 72yr old artist who learned about NFTs in March 2021. I jumped in with both feet and am having a great time. At first it was hard to learn how the parts, crypto, technology, art went together. I had the art part down and most of the beginning technology but the crypto took me about a month to get my wallet working and i bought some jpgs. I put together a "bucket list" of things to do and now nine months later I'm still moving forward. I have learned so much and have met so many amazing artists, tech, and crypto people. There are so many people but I'll name just a few who have changed my life in some way on this journey; Rossi, tayl0rwtf, phen, anna, antonious, joe, lance, logik, luvelli, trish, lindsey, jenjoy, linzy, joseph, jason, paiman, jen, vgf, brendan, weinbagz, arron, chrisN, sandman, james-good guy crypto, mitch, chrisA, tiki, bt, charmaine, dom, jordi, sabet, laurence, the outsider art collective, and so many more i will exceed my character limit. THANK YOU ALL. This new adventure changed my life, a life where i can blend my love of design, technology with my passions for fine art medium and techniques. No its not an easy change but necessary. AND I sold the second nft i ever bought, my BAYC#8774, blue skin, yellow sailor hat, red heart sunglasses and golden earring... and it turns out that Adidas Originals bought it and made it one of their mascots, how great is that! My ape went on to be famous. LOL I wish you best success with what you choose explore in life. Enjoy. Laugh. Play.
