A little while ago I joined a site called markersplace on the advice of
To be completely honest, I'm still fuzzy on what a blockchain is and I only just this week uploaded stuff to comixology (more on that later) , BUT what this is IS a place where you can buy a digital work of art...and somehow through blockchain technology, no one else can have it.
...
...I really don't understand how all this works.
Nonetheless, I have about seven illustrations up there and you can trade in some crypto (while it still has value, hahaha...sigh) and get a blockchain numbered hi-res digital file. It's actually a cool idea now that I think about it. Like...you can get a comic book off of comixology or a mp3 of a song...but there is no collectable value in that. There is no first pressing of the album or first edition of the book. THIS however is a block chain provable first edition.
...maybe I am starting to understand this stuff after all. The trick is you keep using the term "block chain" until your brain gets tired of using it without understanding it and forces itself to attach a meaning to it.
anyhooo...I got an email from one of the folks on Markersplace that I'll share with you here and then show off the stuff of mine that you could get there ---

Well "cheers" to you too "Ryoma Ito" I wonder how you pronounce that...he must be an Irish guy.
ALRIGHT...enough screwing around, here's examples of the digital art of mine that's up at the makersplace website
and HERE is the link to my section of that site
https://makersplace.com/store/arseniclullaby/

TOMORROW...I can either give you a blog about me complaining about a turtle
OR a blog where I complain about what that went wrong while working on The Tick comic book
Vote in the comments or I'll decide myself
update...the voting was a tie...so you get neither one this week. a tie is not a win
the tags list on Steemit is generated by code...which puts tags up there based on ONLY popularity of use. You will notice that #comics does not exist there...yet. So I ASK THAT YOU USE #comics ON EVERY COMMENT YOU LEAVE ON MY BLOGS
