THE SHOWDEER GENESIS COLLECTION (2008-2023)

The Showdeer Genesis Collection is a look inside fifteen years of dedication and hard work of one artist continuing to make art his life by consistently creating digital experimental dreamlike, surrealist and psychedelic illustrative/collage fine artworks while developing a unique style within this 15-year timespan starting in 2008 experimenting with digital fine art. All pieces were created digitally in a collage-illustrative fashion using Adobe Photoshop exclusively starting in 2008 to 2023. Approx. 2500 pieces were created with only 1000 of the best selected forever minted on the ethereum blockchain.

In the collection each piece contains a short description, is numbered #0001-1000, features rarity properties, mini-collections within the collection; including twenty-seven Super Psychedelic rares, nine Collector Commissions, another nine in The Garden Pieces Series, (#3 “Garden Skull” owned by Cozomo Medici) as well as the last nine pieces being held for future auctions when the collection gains even more popularity. Number nine? - You can view his entire Catalogue Raisonné here as well as all rarity properties here.
