First entry

Hello

First post calls for some introductions. Hello! thanks for visiting.

I'm not the most wordy of people. In my education, it was engrained in me to let my work speak for me, however that's not how these things typically work. So if you are reading thank you for your genuine interest and patience.
Myself, I'm a designer, I think its helpful to mention that before this next bit. However, I kind of function more under the belief that people should not define themselves as one particular thing. I am me acting as "___". That might sound pretentious, but the way I interpret that idea is that we are all capable of contributing but we should contribute in the the way that is most genuine to ourselves.

I'd like to use this blog as a record of the mediums I like to explore.
Me, I'm acting as a photographer, a painter, a gardener, an architect, a printmaker, and whatever else i feel like trying tomorrow.

Lastly, because some time has gone by before we've had this chance to meet I'd like to throw some images below for you to view. I hope you like them. Please follow along if you like what you've seen and read. Comment if you'd like to share with me what you're contributing. People can be pretty awesome and I get really excited to see what good and great things they can do.
My very best,
Trey

Welcome to Steemit! I'm always happy to see more printmakers here, as there are too few of us. I got here because I'm actively curating the #printmaking tag, which is pretty easy right now.

A couple of bits of newbie advice: posts and comments with a payout below $0.02 don't pay out at all. So it's generally a good idea to make fewer, more in-depth posts than more quick ones. And while your voting power is low, you should focus on voting on posts rather than comments; on a post your vote will combine with others to be meaningful, while the vast majority of comments you upvote will never pay out.

There are two initiatives specifically designed to support and promote the content of newer posters: @ocd and @curie. Check them out to get an idea of what content does well here.

If you're interested in purchasing upvotes I highly recommend starting with @minnowbooster.

All very helpful! thank you.
