Together, we have been walking this lonely road for two and a half years. An endless road, full of opportunities.
I catch a breath for a minute to reminisce of times long past.
The good old days in 2021, where we could mint and hold something dear to us, collect and connect to
Nfts made me go from, having no financial stability, not being able to get a mortgage, kissing art directors butts for jobs to building my own studio, being financially independent and looking to buy a house without mortgage.
That's the power of this industry.
Dutchtide Studios has officially been registered as a company today
@DutchtideStudio
This is a huge step for me. Not even a year ago this would have only been real in my dreams. But here we are. Thank you for being on the journey with me. This is just the beginning🙏
I'm having my last dinner with my grandmother. I know she most likely will pass the coming days. She's very tranquil and zen and it makes me admire her strength and bravery, how she traverses a destination unknown that we are all headed to.
Appreciate your loved ones ❤️
Public mint is officially live🚀🚀🚀🚀
What a crazy journey this has been, really learned the meaning of community. Thank you to everyone who made this possible.

Yesterday while I was next to her, my grandmother passed away. I am glad I was there, but I can tell my body has to deal with a lot. Funeral is next week. So till that time I will take it easy. Life has been very chaotic past 2 months.
I'll be around ❤️

Last year at this time I was building
#midnightbreeze
, my life has changed a lot since then. This time around I am building v2. And it will I think once again, change my life. And hopefully that of you as well
On this long journey that I have been on with Midnightbreeze, the Azuki community has supported me all the way.
Today, I join that community in the Garden.
Welcome to the lonely road, azuki 3802
Today I lost a part of me. She's been here through every major part of my life. But now , I have to continue onward without her. I took her as far as I could, and let her come to rest on my lap seeing my eyes as the last thing before she fell asleep.
Dottje ❤️
Two years ago I woke up on this day, and my life had changed.
My project Midnight Breeze sold out.
8 years ago, I woke up on this day, And my life was changed.
My mom had passed away.
I lived on autoplay for a full year after my mom had passed away.
I was 20 at the time.
Art is what makes your NFT's not just a gamble, but rather a journey.

Midnight Breeze V2 PROOF OF CONCEPT
Midnight Breeze V2 is an animated banner project. I got inspired by 90's anime aesthetic, and I feel this would take it to that level. What you see here is just to catch vibes. No final anything. Hope you are in for the ride!
🌴Stay breezy🌴
Every single royalty that MidnightBreeze receives goes to pay for V2. We are working hard. And we will kick the industries butt.
I am excited. To say the least. But above all, grateful. 🙏❤️
I made it!!!! 10k followers. Insane.
I have noticed engagement is a lot easier at this range. When I had 7000 followers I had to fight for that engagement. It's a big milestone for me. A year ago at this time I reached 1000 followers. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
Gm,
Absolutely blown away by the support of set 32, permanence.
This collection of art is very special to me as I have been making it alongside my dog whom I thought would pass away. It's made me feel a lot of emotions during the creation
Which one is your fav?
My (step)dad got a stroke 2 hours ago.
So I think the coming period I will take some time to reflect. Things might get some delay as my productivity will come second.
I have good hopes for him, he responded to my voice and seemed to recognize me. But cannot speak. Much love ❤️
Look,
You want some anime stuff? Buy
#midnightbreeze
. My art is inspired by the Japanese word 間 (space)
Quality over quantity folks. Choose quality. Choose Innovation
Midnight Breeze is a nft project I'd love to buy into. That's why I am creating it. In essence I am my own target audience. A visual experience that focuses on emotion and story through landscape and abstract characters.
After I'm finished, I think similar projects will follow

This was my initial concept for the opepen series. Its a cool idea, but it doesnt make for a great pfp.
So I scrapped it.
What do I do with it now? Suggestions welcome

Even though we are in a bear market. People consistently buy breezes. Floor is 0.35 and yet it doesn't seem to slow down. Why?
Because they buy what they enjoy.
Gm friends,
A strong breeze flows through the metaverse today. Make sure to do your laundry at Midnight clean and don't forget your socks in the machine. Have a wonderful Sunday

Officially moved out of home today. Very surreal experience.
I personally feel very connected to places, I lived in this house for the past 14 years and due to my father getting sick had to move out asap.
Processing it all for now. Very scared but at the same time relieved.
In anticipation of

Audio is as much part of my art as visuals are. In the past, the soundtracks were center piece of my work. But in MidnightBreeze V2 the ambiance and sound effects will take the art to a new level.
Can't wait for you to actually experience it.
Introducing Midnight Breeze: a generative animation with a limitless world to explore!
With V2, I'm gonna show you the endless possibilities of this world. Join me on this journey where art, tech, and community come together 🫡
Welcome to the B R E E Z E 🍃
NFTs are dead, long live NFTs.
It's no secret that the bull market of 2021 is long and truly behind us, and that the market, community, and socials have slowed down as a result.
Here's 5 things I'm doing as a founder and artist to keep
#MidnightBreeze
alive🧵
Just paid 279928 € in VAT to the tax office. Since I cannot prove that everyone who bought a Midnight Breeze lives outside the Netherlands.
The current tax system is not build for this new technology. Ethereum has no nationality. You do not send invoices.
Time for change.
It's been 2 years since the day MidnightBreeze minted out, and what a ride it’s been!
Since I released the first collection, I have been workin non-stop on the next upcoming release, I am so excited to be able to show you all!
Happy breezeversary 🗻
Today marks a special day. You see, when you start building something, it is a lonely road. And the only way forward is step by step.
The challenge I had ahead of myself, I do not think I was fully aware off. I promised the day after launch of Midnight Breeze that I would make
Sold my
@beeple
for 88 eth. Bought a politics is bullshit for 55. This will give me the capital to fully bootstrap Tide Estates and more. Thank you thank you thank you
Just got news that my Meme Card with 6529 has sold out. Congratulations to all new holders of Bearmarket, I’m very thankful for the love and support it’s received 🤝
Each painting is an opportunity to see what I have learned while creating Midnight Breeze.
It might sound weird, but two years ago I was unable to paint like this.
I would look at artists on artstation, wondering how they came to be where they are. Some pieces I could hardly
Its quite tough at the moment. All attention is on meme coins. No energy is going towards the big projects. Makes me feel like the work will be for nothing.
And on top of that, these final steps in the creation of breeze are just damn heavy. But will get there.
Stay breezey
$ash: a failed currency or a revolutionary coin that is faltering temporarily? A thread on my personal opinion on how to regain trust and growth in the ash ecosystem.
Some patience please, this is a long one (1/23)
These last few days have been tough personally, but things are looking up. Making art helps me deal with some of the tougher things in life. Here a tiny sneakpeek of what's to come and what I got planned.
Thank you for all your support and kindness ❤️🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴
As creator in the space and long term buyer of NFT's. I think it's important to call out bad actors. We as community are responsible for the health of this Industry. Plagiarism, rug pulls , scams are rampant. And we should not support it.
Together we keep it healthy.
You know what bothers me? That people are willing to spend money on bullshit projects. And then you got my mate coming along dropping stuff like this months ago and nobody bats an eye. Get some taste anon.
Today marks a special day.
The first midnight breeze got generated using the breeze generator.
It makes a pivotal moment in this journey that has lasted more then 2 years.
It is the first time I can truly see the hard work pay off.
Each asset flowing and matching perfectly
I'll repeat it again. Floor price is a horrible metric for what collectors value. Midnight breeze floor is 0.39 eth. Average buy? 0.6>
That is simply because folks do not buy for quick return. But because they look for a forever breeze. And that frends is true value.
Today I really was not feeling it. I think the week is really weighing down on me. So just going to take a step back. Hung up a few lamps in the new apartment and will soon get back to work.
For now just time to take a breath.
Girlfriend of my dad says: just sell your funkpunk (cryptopunk) thing and buy the house. And I'm here saying, look, I can sell now. And be out of the cryptopunk game. Or just holdl and have way more gains later.
What do you think?
I do not understand how certain projects can have 1 tweet and 20k followed + in the first few days of them starting. Then by the time they release they have 150k followers and sell out with a Dutch auction making 10million +

Tide Estates - apartments
In September 2020 I started the Tide Estates concept collection. It represents an idea I have had for a long time and have consistently been working toward. The goal is to create an eco system for artists, investors and collectors. 🌆
