New York City-based visual artist and filmmaker Lucien Smith has announced the launch of his very first NFT project, 'SEEDS.' The new digital series draws inspiration from the plant seed packets commonly found at garden centers and home department stores.
Lucien has imbued each 'SEED' with over 40 possible traits such as seed type, color scheme, and more. As a result, the collection includes a wide variety of exclusive artworks with some being rarer than others. For example, a handful of 'SEEDS' will only be available for purchase through OpenSea, a popular peer-to-peer NFT marketplace.
In addition, proceeds from the collection will go towards Smith's non-profit, Serving the People, which aims to make the arts more accessible to young artists. For those interested in getting their hands on a 'SEED,' the presale begins tonight on Lobus.
