Well here we are, my first mirror article post. I’m sure by now you can probably tell this is a test post, but it isn’t completely a waste. I’m Jay Golding but I also go by Kwame, and I am a fine artist and curator who has been involved in the web3 space for a little over a year now. I was introduced to NFTs while traveling from California to Mexico after a 4 month stay, and it was literally an entire new world for me. I was excited, curious to learn more about how all of this works, but I was familiar with crypto and how to use wallets. My life was an explosion of new experiences happening all at once and I was enjoying every moment of it.

Long story short I have learned much about this space and have had a lot fun being an artist, curator and most recently exploring the tokenomics aspect by deploying my very first token on the Polygon Network called the [JGA token](https://matcha.xyz/markets/137/0x607445ffd2416f95a46d68480aa2c0f1a3ffe4bf/0xeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee). To show my appreciation to whomever collects this post, I will reward an amount of 24 JGA tokens, which will grant the holder early access to the JGA marketplace that is going to be built plus more.

Also check out my first and only “Zora” mint below titled “Meli Melo Time-lapse”. This video documents me painting nature during my first week in Tulum last year, which is also the same time period I was exploring NFTs. I had so much fun, and have transformed so much since then, and am truly grateful for all the experiences I’ve had along the way.

Much love to you reading this and I wish you nothing but greatness and success in your life! Whatever success looks like to you that is. Take care.
