Desert dreamscape with meteor shower

I began creating 3D art in the form of dreamscapes at the end of 2020. I needed a mental escape from the chaos that was going on in the outside world while COVID-19 disrupted our normal lives. I discovered Blender 3D, the software I use to create these surreal landscapes, and dove right in. I posted on social media every day, and the response was positive, eventually leading to posts on Hypebae, Stelinspo social media and an article feature by Visual Atelier 8. I eventually gained traction in-person as well, and was featured in two separate exhibitions at the Seattle NFT Museum: "Pioneering Women" and "Cultural Kaleidoscope", and at exhibition Forest For The Trees (FFTT) in Seattle.

I was later discovered by WildXYZ, an NFT startup focused on bringing the most creative minds to the forefront of digital art. I worked with their developers to create a series of 100 unique immersive spaces available for purchase as non-fungible tokens. These spaces were created initially in Blender 3D, then exported to Unreal Engine 5 and made completely interactive on browser. I ensured to keep the pieces engaging by adding "easter egg" elements such as the ability to fast-forward time in the scene, change from day to night, and be seated in the conversation pit or pool. The series was almost completely sold out, with 97/100 pieces being purchased within the first few weeks of release.

I expanded on my work and remained engaged with users by creating a Google Chrome extension, Sage Tab. See beautiful dreamscapes each time a new tab is opened. I coded and deployed this extension myself and showcase pieces that I created.
