Every time Bitcoin rises in price People ask WHY? So we tell them: Hard cap, scarcity, increasing demand for the hardest, soundest money ever… And they dismiss all that. It’s a bubble! They say. And the cycle repeats. But each cycle there are more and more Bitcoiners.

Something about this stone combination just really does it for me. The light behind the orange calcite makes it like a pillar of harnessed energy. It’s screaming “Bitcoin” and I haven’t even worked Bitcoin into the design yet. It’s like Bitcoin and neoclassicism had a baby. As an artist I’ve been trying to land on an aesthetic that works for me, experimenting and experimenting and I think maybe I’m on to something that I need to continue pursuing…

Making quick progress with my angle grinder to rough out the general shape of the base. Once that part is done, I’ll do all the final shaping with hammer and chisel.⚒️🏛️

Decided to dive into this project and it’s starting to take shape. Working on the base of the column first. I’m planning to modify the design of the capital so saving that for later. And it kind of just makes sense to start from the ground up with something like this..🏛️⚒️

I have this bad habit of thinking that my ideas will be easy to execute… and then they turn out to be way more complicated than I initially thought. That optimism does end up pushing me to grow my skillset and level up though, so maybe in the end it’s actually a good habit.

Playing with an idea for a new sculpture.. Carrara marble and orange calcite. A glowing column inspired by classical civilizations with Bitcoin accents. Definitely with a light source behind the orange calcite.. Bitcoin will form the basis of a brighter future and what better way to represent that than one of the most recognizable symbols of civilization: the column.

Polishing is done… Not sure I’m satisfied with the sanding though. I may go back and redo it. Could just be perfectionism rearing its ugly head so I’m going to sit on it for a bit and see how I feel later.

I kinda hate working with resin… …but I also kinda love it. Done for the day. Done with sanding. Tomorrow I’ll get to polishing and if all goes well I’ll end up with a beautiful glass like finish. Stay tuned..
