I have started a less ambitious collection then publishing all my paintings in digital rendition. This is a small seal that functions as a signature on the paintings themselves. The goal is to sell many at a low cost and in this way fundraise to cover any gas costs associated with the whole effort. The plan is to release blocks of about 10 at a time ever-so-slightly different tokens to make up total of 108. They are priced at 0.08ETH and have resale commission of 8%.
Based on the original painting of Saxplayer floating through sky of music…
Choying, art life, based on actual visionary oil paintings. Limited edition manipulations of the oil paintings done over the period of over 30 years. While traveling in Europe and looking out the window in Brooklyn NY. Each painting as a starting point presented as original, then in color inversion as well as in monochrome. To create unique view of computer perspective on something that originally received brush strokes and varnish gloss. – https://opensea.io/collection/choying

NFT is not very “new” as it is directly related to crypto-currency. However our current news are filled with updates on how venerable Christie’s has sold a massive token effort by one digital artist for millions. Yes it does sound unreal, the price is somewhere around 69M and the name of the digital artist Beeple.
I have for years thought of ways to fundraise for the idea of retreats mine and of other people and accessible to others temples and just an increase in offering monetary support to existing wonderful places that I had good fortune of visiting and studying in. While I have no plan in regards to how much it could generate, 10, 100, 1000, millions. It is available and published. I promise to try and do my best using any funds received well and mentally dedicate all merit to all who come in touch with the effort in particular and to all sentient beings in general.
