Enjoyed our podcast? Shoot us a text and let us know—because great conversations never end at the last word!This week on TezTalks Radio, we sit down with George Goodwin, better known as OMGiDRAWEDit, one of the most recognizable artists in the Tezos ecosystem. If you’ve spent time in Tezos art, you’ve likely seen his work — bold colors, strange characters, chaotic scenes that somehow hold together the longer you look.But this conversation goes deeper than style.🎙️ It starts before Tezzardz, before Tezos — back when George was still trying to figure out what kind of artist he wanted to be, and what was missing from his work.🔍 In this episode, we explore: The shift from darker, monochrome work to vibrant, character-driven worlds What it really means to “find your voice” as an artist Why NFTs felt different from the start — and why they mattered How Tezos became more than a platform and started to feel like home What stayed true through every phase of the Tezos art scene The real story behind Tezzardz and what it was responding to How success changed George’s perspective as an artist Why projects like Bedroom Nostalgia and Disordurance reveal a deeper side of his work The tension between being an artist and becoming a content creator What it takes to keep going when attention fades At its core, this is a conversation about something most artists wrestle with quietly: how to grow without losing the thing that made your work yours in the first place.
