Recently my painting, Me Wàyé (Become Day) was sold at live auction. It was made specifically for and donated in support of Pearson College They displayed the painting during their 50th Anniversary celebrations this August. After having the painting appraised by a third party, the gift-in-kind charitable tax receipt was valued at $4000. Funds raised will go towards supporting student scholarships this academic year. #artstr #painting #art #artist #grownostr #charity #donation

It’s on the way. 🤪 Canaan Avalon Q Impressive specs and still quiet. I’ll add some 3D printed shrouds to tie it into the HVAC. #mine4heat #bitcoin #home #miner #avalon

What have you zapped lately? I’m trying to zap stuff that I genuinely find valuable, funny, informative. Seeing artists posting their original work almost always gets a zap from me. Normalize zapping generously. I think we need more zaps per valued post than sats per zap. *Whoop! - I just got zapped while writing this post* 😀 I’m thankful for every zap. ⚡️ likes mean almost nothing compared to the even the smallest zap. #zap #zapathon #grownostr

the knots / core debate. It feels kinda like the browser wars, in that; one day we used the one browser everyone used. A few options emerged and it was self evident that you could use whatever browser you chose. Browsers have evolved and so will the nodes, wallets and apps. #knots #nodes #core

lol. Early days for bitchat. Apparently there’s one other user in Canada. nostr:note1f9fvdvdznjk522t6rvsnsc9hxtd5ukzytu2wucfvp5gggqe3kqpq9erx7v

It took me a while to sort out my router… but I’m running a full knots node. Just Decentralizing and Securing the network over here. #knots #node #fullnode #bitcoin

My newest triptych features a garage door motif. Here’s proof it looks better with a darker colour. 2 thin coats are better than one, so It’ll get another coat. I have always felt good brush work beats spraying on wood work. #proofofwork #proofitlooksbetter #diy #paint #exteriorpaint #garage
