Hey Steemit,
It has been just over 6 months that i have entered the steemit community. I have met some special people indeed. The community is special because its at the forefront. I see steemit going " mainstream ", more than ever.
I have mostly been an introvert in the past, and the community has opened my eyes to all shades of the spectrum. I fear being implosive in combination to being introverted. I fear rejection, as that's what's been a constant for my kind, specially from where i'm at. So i was born, then i understood a bit about the existing stereotypes in my bubble world, and then i chose to be an artist because of those very existing stereotypes. I figured, that actions will speak louder than words.
Is steemit ready for the mainstream drama ?? and accepting ALL shades of the spectrum ??
If there are thousands of varieties of plants & animals around, then its silly to assume that humans are only of a few kinds.
Right now, everyone has an online presence, a blog, a FB, a twitter handle etc. etc. .... cant everyone also have their own coins ??
Just wanted to point out that its kind of like that when big art collectors used to INVEST in paintings , because they would have faith that the artist would be big ! Lets face it, this is a shrewd and capitalistic world, and big art collectors are NOT paying thousands of dollars for paint on canvas because of " the way it makes them feel " and all that other bullshit.
Or am i the definition of a skeptic ? have i already judged the world and do i assume wrong that life is a spontaneous scavenger hunt ?? To say that i don't have faith in humanity is actually an understatement. And no my profile pic is my real face, im not saying this anonymously. To think otherwise might also be giving in to the ego of the mob mentality that humankind often presents !! The moral dilemmas are endless. Only art seems to help me put horse-blinders on my train of thoughts.

can you imagine a world where every person has a crypto-currency of their own, which pertains to their own particular business practice ? would that be a less or an even more capitalistic world ?? I mean, it basically happened to the dot com bubble didnt it ?? and now everyone has their own websites dont they ??
I know they say that "be who you are" ..... but let me ask all you anonymous profiles ranting about all over the place ... "are you who you say you are ?" . If you see danger in revealing your identity, then would u reveal it ?? no, because you call that stupid, yet you preach !!
WHEN Scientology kicks in fully, are you capable of self control ?? do we have any ?? Can we as humans not be indulgent ?? didnt our parents teach us that " too much of literally anything, is bad " .... ??
Are you old enough to have self-restrain ?? or are we all basically all about having a dual life on one hand, and creating social impressions on the other ??
So if its all about ego for the humankind where presentation really matters .... and then, after Scientology is saturated
and there are no sectrets ... then wont you expect each one of us to have our own coin ??
i bet everyone's cog wheels are already churning about what kind of a branding will your own coin have ?? Do you also want a logo drawn out by me before you even have a coin name, or a use case, or a skill that you do that investors could invest in you for ?? ....
Understand and then remember the power of " mainstream " fiction
specially when it comes to herding sheep ......
This is why i want to do what i do....

The content of my art is usually fiction, that sometimes tells a story and other times just an idea. My artwork explores the vast spaces of imagination. Science Fiction is my favorite genre of fiction. I specialise in creating concept art & illustrations for various projects such as games, animations, movies, comics or even other random ideas floating about in my head .
Fiction is a way of abstraction commonly used by artists, writers and other visionaries as it reveals, very subtly, what journeying into a person’s mind might be like. I like to paint fiction because it gets the cog wheels running as I board a whole new train of thought. It has the ability to take you away from the troubles of the real world as you get immersed in it .
The artists of Star trek came up with the visual look/idea/design of “ the communicator” , that sparked the creation of cell phones. Leonardo da vinci came up with “ the flying machine “ and look at how these things have changed our lives ! Art has the ability to spark ideas that can spiral out. My intention is to create as much art that does exactly that, throughout my life. THAT is the purpose of my life... and i hope i can streamline my thoughts and intentions mostly in the positive side of the axis. At that point, making concept art would feel like inventing something down the future.
Looking forward to your thoughts on all this, dear steemit !!
