Welcome to my official online blog, 
To fellow visual artists, photographers, and other media renderers, connect with me to further converse and commune over new ideas, criticism, and trend topics I regularly post. Share links and other content to collaborate within this network abroad, on Facebook, and other various social media networks. Individual business accepts either party, capacity accounts credit as a creative collective, underwritten by a label, brand, and publishing for each production. All accounts can access assets available by publishing a catalog or producing material for an annual almanac.
FLOATINGMARS Intellectual Property Assets and Holdings hosts label distribution for brands held under The Imagemakers' Guild label, publishing prints, products, and other publications issued with its display. The Imagemakers' Guild publishes label brands produced by fellow contributors, collaborators, collectors, and cultivists pursuing online publishing automation. This fellowship bridles provisions for planning and production of basic passive income for its contributors. Collaborators can connect with other contributors, collectors and cultivists can also commute creative content as commercial partnerships, thus our primary capital investment is CREATIVITY.
Contributors may subscribe to the Creative Process, a progressive process on producing content for prints, products, and publication for their individual profile. First is to produce an introduction to the Steemit Blockchain, your first post as a Social Media Maker on Steemit's respective networks such as Busy, or with its extended applications like Steepshot, Zappl, Dtube, etc. Readers follow source authors in Illustration, Graphic Design, regular updates of the sketch(es), drafts, transfers, the Final Art, and color.
Then, as par the course, one provides navigation for a Facebook page, Patreon account, and an Email Newsletter, for which primary source links to Steemit's blockchain network. Websites and applications like Instagram (Read: Steepshot) feature news updates, images for prints, products, apparel, home decor, desktop items, and series collection materials. Similarly, these sites feature network-specific images, video, and quotable content as the Prototype. A prototype constitutes a cover image, logo, a pattern, or a byline, followed by a synopsis or an index of all enclosed media. Learn more about original graphic illustration, digital graphic design, and creative consulting. Offer up lessons on how to book a consultation, project details, and recover memorable dates and notable deadlines. Patrons sponsor research, references, reviews, and the refinement of services rendered by a Creative Artist, commutable as a weekly/monthly recap or digest. A creative artist provides commercial services for consultation, commission, and contact information on physical goods produced as a result of sponsorship. Sponsored projects that produce goods numbering (5) FIVE or more published products are considered a Set, (10) TEN or more is a Series. Series collections may consist of items up to (25) TWENTY-FIVE, only after published as a Series Sketchbook. (50) FIFTY items produce publcation for a Showcase.

I grew up in Miami, when I moved here from New York City where I was born an only child to my mother, a single parent who immigrated from Jamaica in the mid-1980s. My early childhood was spent in a small apartment, playing with my toys in an open room, and left with my imagination as my best friend. Even then, everyone can tell I was born a dreamer.

The title, "imagemaker" refers to the idea of an graphic illustrator using both analog and digital media to create original art; as an artist-entrepreneur, original artwork is sold as print or branding/publication. My aim is to offer a unique style of articulate detail and a fusion of influences from cultural cues, found in indigenous history and modern science-fiction motifs.
Currently, I'm building a mobile business platform for selling my art anywhere to anyone at an affordable price, a model balanced between self-employment and community service, the kind that allows my skills and talents to continue to grow as well as to help as many in need of design services as possible.
Please tell us about your art. What do you do / make / create? How? Why? What’s the message or inspiration, what do you hope people take away from it? What should we know about your artwork?
I create visuals as original "ART-ifacts", a product, brand, and/or trademark. I create original images, that are sold as hand-crafted products for the home that aims to inspire and elevate. Blending analog and digital methods into a unique creative process, the art is graphic images, specifically for covers, logos, and other trademark assets.
Since 2009, the creative art market has experienced a complete digital revolution and since I've curated a catalog online access to both client and employers that I network with. My website www.artistcraigahamilton.com I created from original elements using design software, such as Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, to develop original web assets and media. After producing a hand-drawn design or sketch on physical media, my illustrations are scanned, digitally rendered, then formatted for custom printed products like on housewares and apparel.

My images are various illuminated scenes from the realm of my imagination. Every publication stands as an excerpt from the inner world of my thoughts, inspiration, and abstraction. Impressions drawn from my illustrations have stated compelling, cathartic, consummate, and "raw". Collectors and curators alike may enjoy my artwork as not only wall art, rather stunning graphics that can enlighten the everyday place or create a unique piece, cultivators are welcomed to invest in my illustrations and trade amongst other artistic disciplines, projects such as in film and gaming.
Every week, I release all-new original graphic images, readily available as wall decor to wearables, on sale through Society6.com. There, visitors can browse through dozens of illustrations that with a single click can be transformed into ready-to-own collectibles, housewares, and outerwear for the home and headspace.

What do you think about conditions for artists today? Has life become easier or harder for artists in recent years? What can cities like ours do to encourage and help art and artists thrive?
My profession explores the question: where do people engage with art? There are many venues and increasing options for developing artists to showcase and share their artwork, both locally in town and globally online abroad. I believe there are as many opportunities as there are obstacles, respectably challenges at every experience level artists and creators face living in the city of Miami. Where there is strife amongst the population, either for affordable housing to the rising cost of living, overall the challenge of striking a healthy balance between lucrative distribution and meaningful employment, admittingly being an artist is becoming more a hustle than a way of life. Tourism has its sights and sounds; a compilation of hospitality destinations in and surrounding the beaches, Downtown is quickly becoming a bustling city center bustling with architectural wonders and brimming beats of traffic in the streets. Technologists have opened platforms within the bordering neighborhoods transforming sleepy communities into creative incubators. I ask: why not engage people everywhere they are and use the art as a presence to connect, perhaps even heal, a community.
My foreseen challenge demands how to remain creative and deliver the message of artistic expression truthfully and honestly. Throughout the past three years, I have experimented with new, emerging technologies that are in use for smartphone apps, web browsers, and even in Blockchain networks. The far-reaching promotional power of a website is entirely amplified from constant touring of a physical pop-up micro print shop that can be easily set up for any event or festival. Fans can find my pop-up on location and purchase special edition prints, limited-edition collectibles, and signature publications with collections of my original artwork. Followers online can simultaneously bid on physical goods produced from my original artwork content, broker token digital currency for authentic reproductions, even curate earning potential from citing official artist channels.
