BIG updates to share today!
A few months ago, I announced that a scene from The Lurkers—featuring the girl in the yellow jacket—would grace the cover of The Rainfall Market, published by Penguin Random House UK. This book achieved "legendary status" in South Korea, becoming a bestseller with 30,000 copies sold in its first month. Penguin licensed my artwork for the UK cover.
Since then, things have taken an exciting turn! The book launched in the UK on Thanksgiving Day, and the response has been incredible. The original Korean publisher loved the artwork so much that they reached out to license it for a special edition. I’m thrilled to share that we’ve reached an agreement, and my art will soon debut in Korea, where the book has a massive fanbase.
But that’s not all—The Rainfall Market is also coming to the USA, the largest book market in the world, in January 2025! I can’t wait to see my art in person at major retailers like Barnes & Noble.
The reach of this book is expanding quickly. Hundreds of thousands of copies across the world will feature my artwork on the cover. I’ve also reached an agreement with a publisher in Poland and am in discussions with others to bring my art to even more countries.
It’s surreal to think this all started with the original—a digital artwork minted on the blockchain. Now, it’s making its way into bookstores and retailers around the globe. Digital art will continue to spread into the world in exciting ways, and I’m here for it!
I’m also thrilled to see book cover art growing in appreciation. People love good stories, and when there’s captivating cover art involved, it creates an exciting opportunity for collecting. Earlier this year, I read on ARTnews that the original cover art for the first Harry Potter sold at Sotheby’s for $1.9 million, the most expensive HP memorabilia ever! I also recently saw an email from Christie’s about a book cover art sale they held just weeks ago. It’s inspiring to think about how digital art and NFTs could impact this collectible market and potentially grow as a new category within the broader digital art space.
Stay tuned—I’ll be sharing photos of the different editions of The Rainfall Market in the coming days. Each one has its own unique touches, and I can’t wait to show you all the ways this artwork is coming to life!

GM and Welcome to the Critter shop grand opening!
Critters have been part of my web3 journey from the very start. They symbolize spontaneity, finding joy in the ordinary, and having fun in all we do.
Big shoutout to @embroidery_boy for making my noodly poos into reality. And thank you to all of my holders and friends. This wouldn't have been possible without all of you!

Free money argument is lazy.
The truth is that $art missed the window to release a token as the market was ramping up because a few of the co founders that everyone hates were busy self dealing and shilling their bonk bags through their platform.

"As for sweet and sour - she had been releasing a new series of physicals - and I enjoyed most of the set. I particularly liked the new muted palettes she was using ; a little different to her prior work" - @mic333sol

Gm. A bit of a long post today.
Excited to announce that a scene from The Lurkers and the girl in the yellow jacket will be gracing the front cover of an upcoming book release, published by Penguin Random House UK!
'The Rainfall Market' achieved "legendary status" in South Korea, becoming a bestseller with 30,000 copies sold in the first month.
Penguin discovered The Lurkers art through my IG and fell in love, particularly with Lurkers #016. I recreated this scene and licensed the art to them for their cover.
After they shared more about the author and the story, I thought this was a great match. The author's desire for his book is to "bring comfort and encouragement to people who are going through a difficult time in their lives," and I believe this aligned with messages in The Lurkers series.
The book will be released in October 2024 in the UK. As a larger market than South Korea, I think there's potential for hundreds of thousands of sales, with my work on the cover. It will be carried by major bookstores and retailers.
Super excited to see my work making it's way out into the world on such a large scale, and thrilled to have established a connection with one of the world's largest book publishers.

I was wondering when this story would show up in the #mediciminutes LOL!
In hindsight I should have sent the Medicis a pile of Friendsies and told them to shove it! 🤣🤣🤣
