{"body": "### What's your background?\n\nHello, I'm an illustrator and animator with a strong interest in painting animals for weird and unexpected angles, friends call me an indie artist. I've been working as an illustrator for over a decade and I have been minting my art as NFTs since 2021 Feb.\\\n\\\nI joined pixel art community a few months ago by participating as basepaint artist with 700 pixels available daily.\n\n### What will you be doing?\n\nI'd love continue painting animal artworks and animating them. It's rather a simple idea, but I would love to create at least a single piece of animated pixel artwork weekly. I believe that by receiving a grant as an artist resident I would be free of worry about my living expenses and I could get all the courage to create art.\\\n\\\nP.S. this is my links to my art portfolios:\\\n\\\n<https://www.behance.net/JustasJ>\n\n<https://basepaint.xyz/profile/0x0135F337aB4B35B3006eAec61FE7779f270F5B3b>\n\n### Time you can commit\n\nIdeally I would love to spend a couple of hours daily working on my artworks directly rated to pixel art residency representing Vrbs.\n\n### Why you care about Vrbs?\n\nI'm a committed person with a strong sense of responsibility, which could be proved by long presence in the digital art community. Other than that I'm passionate when it comes into promoting platforms that care about artist and put all of their strength to support them. I believe that such projects as Basepaint or Vrbs are the last art meccas in the NFT world that keep the community strong and connected and that's what I want to cultivate.\n", "title": "Pixel Artist Residency"}
