  • ART BAZAAR CANCELLED

    The next Hunter Arts Network’s Art Bazaar which was due to be held at Lambton Park on Sunday 29 August has been cancelled due to the latest Covid-19 health concerns and restrictions. This was a difficult decision which the committee has had to make for the second year in a row. Keeping the community safe and healthy is everyone’s priority at present and the committee is hoping conditions will improve and permit the Christmas Art Bazaar to go on in late November.

    Art Bazaar fans are still able to support their favourite Hunter-based artisans by purchasing their work online on Hunter Arts Network’s recently launched Find a Creative website. Hunter Arts Network members have been catalogued online to enable search by modality. To purchase work in the meantime from Art Bazaar artisans online visit https://hunterartsnetwork.org/find-a-creative/

    Members who had paid their stall fee for 29 August will have their payment credited to their account which can be applied to future Art Bazaars or membership. If any members would prefer to have the stall fee refunded please email publicity@hunterartsnetwork.org
    The Hunter Arts Network thanks you for your continued support and understanding and wish the best of health to everyone in this difficult time. The committee hopes to see everyone as soon as we are allowed. Take care and stay safe.

  • My first NFT has just been listed!

    My first listing now for sale is an animation of my original painting “Arctic Voodoo”.

    Current price Ξ 1

    Purchase here

    This is a completely unique NFT by Margo Humphries which can be owned by a single person. You cannot buy the painting itself, but an animated version is available as an NTF token in a single copy. The NFT token with this animated painting will be listed only once.

    Purchase unlocks 28.8 MB .mp4 file download

    The animation was created using Photoshop, 300 dpi, 9000 pixels wide x 12615 pixels high.

    The original painting was painted in 2005, acrylic on paper, original painting size 15cm×20cm. The original painting is not available as the original has been sold.

  • Coming soon – Crypto Art (NFT’s)

    Margo Humphries has always wanted to bring her artworks to life and now that her 2D works are becoming animated it is exciting to see how they move. To share these with the world they will be available exclusively through the Ethereum blockchain.

    Crypto art collectibles are also known as NFTs (non-fungible tokens). Like Bitcoin, NFTs are cryptocurrencies. But whereas individual bitcoins all have the same value, NFTs are more like baseball cards. Each token has a different value and they can’t be used to buy things. They exist on your computer as digital representations of artworks, songs, films and games, and other things.

    NFTs have been around since 2017. An NFT is a work of art that has no tangible form, and exists only as a digital token that’s no more “real” than a file on your computer.

    When you buy an NFT, you’re buying a unique certificate of ownership, which is locked away on an immutable distributed database known as a blockchain. The creator of the artwork generally retains the copyright and in most cases, you own little more than bragging rights. Creators are also likely to pass the costs for creating your NFT files (“minting” them) on to you (around US$120).

    NFTs depend on a blockchain. Ethereum is a blockchain secured using a similar proof-of-work system to Bitcoin. This involves an energy-intensive computer function called mining. Specialist mining computers take turns guessing the combination to a digital lock (a long string of random digits). The computer that correctly guesses the combination wins a reward paid in a cryptocurrency called Ether. The digital lock resets roughly every 15 seconds, and the competition continues. Due to the competitive nature of proof-of-work mining, booming NFT markets are encouraging the construction of reliable coal-fired power stations, so that crypto miners don’t have to suffer intermittent access to renewable generation.

    The collection will be available here:
