Art of Her

Abigail and her brother launched the Belugies NFT project - 8000 pictures of belugas were sold out in ten hours. Business Insider told about its creation.

Adam, 25, works as a trader, and his 14-year-old sister Abigail is fond of animals and loves creativity. Since childhood, he told her about cryptocurrency, and then about the concept of NFT.

At first, the girl treated her with distrust — called her a fraud and believed that tokens were no different from ordinary JPEG images. However, my brother continued to talk about the technology, and in September 2021 they decided to create their own NFT project Belugies.

First, Abigail came up with and drew a character — a cute beluga whale. She has loved these animals since she once saw them at the Georgia Aquarium. Then she separately created 167 ornaments, such as glasses, caps and fur coats. The artist made most of the drawings on the iPhone 8.
