nicklewis on Nostr: We took a whole sequence of photos in the studio that my friend owned and up to Alamy ...

We took a whole sequence of photos in the studio that my friend owned and up to Alamy they went back in 2006 or something like that. Then one day this chap contacted me, a painter who had been commissioned to design a label for a wine company in California who’d come across the images on Alamy and we did a deal.

He shared the story of the painting coming to life from concept to completion and tell you what, if only this took place over Nostr but this was before Bitcoin just about.

I shall find the details of the end product, all in a chain of emails somewhere.

So from a tiny studio in London, then over a decade or so to the image being discovered and put to use in California. It blew my mind.
