Good Afternoon🤍🖤Haven't been posting much lately, because I've been busy with IRL (Midjourney) work. I'm blown away because I sit down every morning and make money doing what I love.
I see a lot of talk about monetization on X, admittedly I focused only on the numbers for a while too, which was bittersweet, but I've come to the realization that you don't need so many views and likes and all the other ways your "influence" can be measured. For me, it took one person to like my work enough to reach out and ask me to do some stuff for them. Today, I got more work by reaching out to someone who I thought I could help. So I'm learning, that monetization will come as a result, but shouldn't be the only goal. The goal is, monetizing yourself.
I'm not here to brag. I just want to prove that it can be done, I want everyone to succeed and there is plenty to go around, so I challenge you to try to shift your mindset a little, from "I want so many people to follow me that I make money." to "In the next few months I want to make $1 from my art" (or skills related to my art. I wouldn't consider project #1 that I'm working on art, but it takes a lot of prompting skill)
Once you make that dollar, make another one. Keep ramming your shoulder into that wall and I promise eventually it will fall.

--🎨Take2sday🎨--
--🗓️A new month = Another chance🗓️--
📉Artificially low likes got you down?
Take2sday is here to lift your spirits and neglected art back into the spotlight! 🎨💡
Did you channel your inner Picasso last month, only to be met with crickets instead of applause? We've all been there! But today is Take2sday - a time to resurrect September's overlooked art like a phoenix from the ashes! 🪶🔥
Today, let's honor those hidden masterpieces that deserved much more appreciation. Perhaps it was the wrong moment in time, a glitch in the algorithm, or just plain old bad luck.🕒🤖🍀
So let's resurrect September's downtrodden da Vincis and overlooked Banksys. It's time to band together and give our unsung artists and their art the standing ovation they've waited far too long for! 🌟🖌️💖
The algorithm might have failed them, but Take2sday won't!
Invite yourself, Invite your friends.

I just want to apologize for being absent for most of Wed. and all of Thurs. Mainly because I put a challenge out there and didn't respond to anyone who replied. I don't get them often, but I do get theses things called Cluster Headaches and they are brutal. This one lasted 27 hours, thus my absence. The good news is it will likely be years until I get another. I promise to respond to everyone once I get caught up. Love you all. 🤍

🚨To anyone interested in the results of the Strawberry Shake Challenge, which was basically an experiment to see what happens if a challenge is sent out where no one is tagged:
🧮A decent amount of impressions, with only 9% engagement and 6 participants. So it is clear that tagging works.
🫂Maybe because it "feels" more personal, like "Hey, this person really wants to see my take on the subject." I'm sure it triggers something in our social media/art brains.
⁉️I guess the issue I've had is that if I follow you, I want to see your art, but I cant possibly tag everyone. Then I'm sitting here going "Well who do I tag?" I don't want people to feel like I'm leaving them out. I don't want to tag only my closest connections, I want to reach out to my newest followers as well.
🧪So far what seems to have worked best and get the most reach is tagging a mix of older and newer followers.
🧠I think I am going to find a way to randomly generate lists of maybe 25-30ish artists for my engagement challenges.
🖐️For the record however, please no one ever feel left out or ignored. If you are reading this, I want to see your art, hear your stories, feel your pain, watch you grow, taste your passion, face your fears, and count your fingers.
🤍

🧬My favorite artist: Alex Grey🧬
🧠Grey's art is characterized by its detailed and complex depictions of the human body, often with transparent or translucent layers that reveal the interplay between physical and spiritual dimensions. Some TOOL fans may recognize his work as he has provided visuals and album art for them quite often.
⭐️The Challenge:⭐️
Use AI to generate new images that reflect Grey's signature style and explore similar themes of consciousness, death/rebirth, and our place in the cosmos.
♥️I'm curious how the following people in particular might re-interpret Grey's unique visual language and compositions in fresh, novel ways!
Please tag anyone else who you feel would enjoy this challenge.🙏

🚨Full Disclosure: This is also a personal/curiosity

🍓The Strawberry Milkshake Mystery🍓
Who? What ? Where? Why? How?
All are welcome to help solve this mystery
📢Tell your friends📢
OH yeah, there will probably be dad jokes.
🧪The experiment part: I'm just curious as to how necessary it is to tag tons people for these challenges . I try to mix it up as random as I can between newer and older followers, I also try to not tag too many people at any given time, but it seems like the community is really good at running with them on their own. Idk, just trying to figure out the right balance, so I figure I'll get a 0 tag baseline. Participate if you normally would and tag people who you think would enjoy the challenge as you normally would. I'll let you know how it went compared to my usual tagging routine - ∞🧪
