2022 began with a trip to Circa Resort & Casino to create this 30″X40″ painting of Vegas Vickie, on-location. In collaboration with Circa — we used this work as the cornerstone for a pioneering series of NFT’s, with suite (ha) utility. Word on The Street? This is big news.

When we launched the Vegas Vickie NFT project in June… we had our sights set on a Summer Bash. Friends — I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Amazing people, gold glove service from Circa, adventures, memories… and the best part?
We’re just getting started.
Read moreLas Vegas, NV — On January 28th — I began a painting of Vegas Vickie, on-location, at Circa Resort & Casino in Downtown Las Vegas. Typically, I finish a work, post it here — and that’s a wrap. However, Vegas Vickie is a demanding mistress — the painting wasn’t enough.
With this, the wheels of history were put in motion. What began as a conversation with Mr. Jeff Victor, Vice President of Circa, is coming to life — in the Vegas Vickie NFT Project.
On February 2, 2022… I signed Vickie to a round of applause (I share this detail, because it’s extremely rare and incredibly awesome for an artist).
In attendance were… Circa Owner Derek Stevens, Mr. Victor and his lovely wife Sheila (pictured above with yours truly); Scott Roeben of Vital Vegas, the amazing Circa team that supported me all week; a group of my beloved friends including Brandy, Patrick, Raiderman, Chas, Pat, Shannon, Garrett and Angelica; and, of course, some beautiful casino patrons.
Behind the scenes — our historic blockchain project was already under way. Before I go way back and tell you everything — check out The Vegas Vickie NFT Splash Page. Sign-up with your email — we’ll discover the future together.
Now, let’s hop in the DeLorean with Marty, and see the past.
