Gm📤🪨 - At long last, I am @Sendrock here. Aside from a few mis-tags yesterday due to the name change, I can say I’m thrilled. Not that I hadn’t grown to accept and even like my adaptation of “@sendr0ck” to my normal handle on social outlets… I even told myself it was more crypto-like with the zero… but it’s generally confusing to have different names on different platforms. Since I established myself on instagram way before Twitter, and since the name Sendrock has a meaning and a history dating back 20 years, I decided it was worth the hassle to change it here! Especially since I’m Sendrock.eth. If you don’t have me on insta and want a follow back just come say hi: instagram.com/sendrock/ but I do have say that the app version on my phone is corrupted and I only have web access for the moment, so not too active. Hopefully a fix will come soon, it’s been months! Anyways, I’ve seen so many mixed opinions of feature updates and changes on X lately and I find them all perceptive. I personally, and selfishly, think that this “claim your preferred handle from an inactive user” to be the best, nobody loses and those of us who are here using the app win! - But I’m curious, what are your most liked or disliked features here and why? Have you tried to grab a different handle? Do you agree with the directions X is heading? What feature would you like to see changed and why? - Like it or not we all live here for NFTs, so I think conversations around this are just as important as those around art!

Gm😮‍💨 - Damn this is insane @orkhan. Orkhan was one of the first artists I ever invested heavily into, back in 2021. His art continues to amazing me. Congrats on all you’ve accomplished man. Let’s hope I take this one home with me! - @SuperRare superrare.com/artwork/eth/0x…

Gm🩸 - This is the drop I’ve most anticipated this year. Such an amazing job @COMPUTERBLOOD and @SuperRare I love this drop page. And of course, hats off to your daughter @GL1TT3RGH0ST for absolutely crushing the collab! I’m curious, what do you think about this art style? I find his style one of the easiest recognizable in the space. I never got into dark art before he lured me into the 💀 cult, but here I am. Which of these father/daughter masterpieces do you think I should secure in the ole wallet? - A note from Glitterghost (5yrs old): “I love the artworks that we did. The Godzilla is so cool. The Godzilla is my favorite but I love them all. I really really really love the big bubble of our family. Thank you for loving our artwork!” - bloodofmyblood.superrare.com

Gm🩸 - Now this is something I truly can’t wait to see 💀 - BTW, who’s going to NFT NYC?

Gm🦌 - Meet Deer IV, a work by @JamesJeanArt I recently added to my collection. I love everything about this piece, both aesthetically and also with the rich symbolism… both intended by the artist and subjective to my own childhood and life experience. I’d love to see some of your art along with any description you may have of its meaning? Is it a typical practice of yours to create such descriptions? How important are they for you when viewing others’ artworks, say in a museum…? - Artist’s description: From the back of the deer emerges the Tree of Life. Its newly formed antlers echo the tree branches that symbolize renewal, interconnectedness, and the continual cycle of growth. Suspended from its branches is a red bat, a traditional emblem of fortune. Because the words for "bat" and "blessing" are homophones in Chinese, the bat has long been associated with good luck, and when depicted upside down it signifies that blessings have arrived. The embossment also reveals five bats surrounding a sleeping face, representing the Five Blessings: longevity, wealth, health, virtue, and a peaceful passing. Deer IV features a fully sculpted and embossed image, with a special dimensional gloss layer that highlights the translucent washes in the original painting. Multiple foil treatments are applied throughout, adding to the detail in the foliage. The surfaces comes alive as it shimmers in the light.

Gm🤘🏼 - Back when @COMPUTERBLOOD was Whalesink (a name which we all pronounced wrong & misunderstood) and his art de jour was mostly radioactive roadkill and dinosaur drawings, I saw something in his madness. He was one of the artists at the time thru which I realized there was more to “collecting” art than just crushing bidding wars… Watching him dig in all these years and define such a recognizable style and well deserved (literal cult) following around him is the kind of reward that makes collecting art something that can’t really be explained or understood by most crypto bros or even trad art collectors or investors. Maybe the angel investors amongst us would get it. This is not a game for those who like clearly defined horizons or instant gratification. Here we must have vision. Here we play the long game. - I’m curious, after all these years… what’s your long game? - Thanks to @SuperRare for the win🫡

Gm💀💉🦋 - Well, we’re finally in the US, FINALLY!! So relieved and relaxed, and so it felt like a fine morning to kick off an auction! Been eyeing this work for a bit now, the physical prints of this one are so insane and I’ll be stoked to grab edition number 1 when I win this thing. Anyone feeling the itch to compete, I dare ya! I’m sure @SuperRare wouldn’t mind… @COMPUTERBLOOD is always a few steps ahead, I’ll be watching his works closely as we round into the hot summer months ahead. I’m curious, what have you got planned for the summer? - superrare.com/artwork/eth/0x…

Gm🫡 - I haven’t had as much fomo about anything lately like I had watching all of the insane happenings during our @TimeToBeHappyGY 2nd birthday week! Truly amazing to see it grow up and witness, even if from afar (mostly via IG stories of hundreds of artists and collectors), all of the incredible creatives who have been in residency. This feels like more of a movement than a place. I can’t wait to take a more active role once I finally get back to the States, and I’d like to extend the opening for any of you artists in our decentralized online/community to discuss the possibility of a residency for yourself. Once again, my hats are completely and unequivocally all of the way off for my incredible brother and business partner in the SoHo Gallery, Benzi. You, ser, are a rare and incredible talent (or maybe force of nature) to be able to do what you do everyday. Can’t wait to see ya in a few weeks! - I’m curious, what would you hope to gain from a residency? What would you like to give to one? How might your art change? Have you ever done something like this before? Would you travel all the way to a different country to participate in something like this? What do you think is a good length of time for a residency?

Gm🤘🏼 - Wow, I can’t believe our SoHo gallery is about to have its second birthday! Time really flies! Though Benzi @TimeToBeHappyGY truly IS the gallery, and has created and runs it in ways that are hard to even imagine, I feel such a deep sense of gratitude and excitement about what it is we are building. It’s truly unique. If any of you are in NYC over the next few days and into this weekend be sure to stop by and check it out. Last year I was there for the 1 year anniversary and it was one of the greatest irl art meetup experiences I’ve ever had. To all the artists who have been in residency, I thank you and look forward to seeing you a couple weeks later if you’re still around! - I’m curious, what’s been your favorite irl meetup so far? What is the next one you plan on attending? Are you going to NFC like I thought I’d be?? If so what are you most excited about? Would you like to spend a month or more (for free) at our gallery in NY as a resident? If so let me know and I’ll put you in touch with the right people.

Gm✈️ - Just a few weeks ago we found out that our eternity of waiting had abruptly come to an end. In the following two days we packed up our entire life in Mexico. What had been an endless string of uncertainty collapsed into very certain timeframes and the necessity for exact logistical expedience. Really gets your blood pumping! In those two long days we transformed the home we had lived in for over a year back into the empty rental it found us as… and I was mule-ing our many suitcases of belongings to Texas as @nudity_slip took off for Barcelona. A week later we met in Poland for the train ride to Ukraine and have been knocking off our final visa deliverables ever since! And in all of this chaos we’ve both felt the excitement of finally, FINALLY going to the US together contrasted by the sweet appreciation for the way Mexico held us. The beauty of the ocean and every amazing sunset, the warmth of the sand beneath our feet and of the amazing people we now call friends, the calmness of our life while on retreat in what ended up becoming our first home together in Cabo. So many gifts, and countless sweet memories. - I’m curious, when in your life did you have unexpected chapters spring up? How were they different than your normal chosen life? Did you accept this chapter quickly? Did you resist? What gifts did this period of time deliver? What memory comes to mind first when you reminisce? - //a couple shots from the final color and bw rolls of film shot at Casa Nolia, Pedregal, B.C.S.

Gm🎂 - I believe my new (insanely funny, aesthetically golden, & truly unique) tarot cards tell that this will be my best year yet🔮😂 Ever wiser and with such a creative and devastatingly beautiful woman by my side, how could it be anything less! - Дякую тобі, моя кохана, за цей чудовий подарунок. Ти справді найкраща частина мого життя, і щодня я прокидаюся вдячним за наше кохання! @nudity_slip - I’m curious, what is your sign? Any fellow Taureans out there? How much stock do you put in such non-linear forms of self knowledge? Do you tarot? What is it that you believe in most?

Gm🍆🍑 - Went in for my annual check up, confirmed that 1D still equals 1B. - That is all. - @CryptoDickbutts

Gm🇺🇦 - If anyone is in Kyiv and wants to grab a coffee or chill hmu, be here for a bit… - Made this oddity the other day, first time really working with clay since childhood. It was a great experience, setting out with nothing in mind other than not to leave very thick areas (for firing correctly). The idea of making something useful, like a cup or plate or something didn’t appeal to me, maybe a sculpture I thought would be more interesting. No idea what I actually made though. Allowing the clay and my hands to tell me what to do, it was very intuitive and brought me deeply into the moment. Whether making it, viewing it or collecting it, I’m always learning more about art. For me it’s the balance of life. - I’m curious, what’s your favorite art form that isn’t your main artistic medium? Do you practice many forms besides digital? What do you learn from allowing intuition to guide you? Do you consider your artistic work to be singular or of a mixed media? Also, what the hell is it that I made here? Any ideas? Anyone want to name it?
