Description

Lately I've been working that openai gpt3 magic on midjourney, but it's been 30 years since I started playing the art for money game. It's time to step away from trading time for money, so I can do work that matters, not work that pays. I also make art by cutting mat board, then peeling the cut sections away creating two color imagery. I hand emboss lines on the mats to then cut font perfect letters, photo realistic scenes, and silhouettes. I also make free-hand (simple & complex) abstracts, landscapes, and more. I've developed my mat-cut art style by cutting thousands of them over the last couple decades. I share my studio work online, doing live art at events, and teaching the unique styles I've developed on Twitch. I've also been making chain sculpture since 1991, and have been a woodshop craftsmanship since I was a pre-teen. I'm turning 55 this year.

[I registered www.PayTreeOn.com a few years ago, thinking it would be something another "recurring payment platform" might find desirable. It seemed to me anyone who heard their unfamiliar 'made up' word, and sounded it out... could easily end up there. When I offered it to them for "any reasonable offer", hoping to generate some income to fund my art, they said "We're not interested, at this time". They had just closed a multi-million dollar funding round, and couldn't see the value, so I just closed my account and walked away. I had both supporters, and provided support to others there... but if they can't see the value of owning the only plain english word spelling of their domain name, I can't see using their service. There is a reason kickstarter also owns the domain kickstrater, it's just good business. Since liberapay has the transparency and ethics of open source, I've forwarded the domain to liberapay ever since.]
