Illustrating for a project is one thing; pushing out the desired goal and narrative the project wants to portray is another.

I always say: let your art tell a story. When it does, it resonates with people, bringing clear understanding and conviction.

Let’s connect!

I worked on the $Val rebrand and NFT collection, and honestly, I enjoyed every step of the process.

When I first met $Val, they were using an AI-generated image that didn’t provide a clear vision or conviction of what the team aimed to achieve.

$Val isn’t just about regular illustrations—it’s a real-life storytelling illustration.

VAL, which stands for “store of value,” is a meme token launched on the Solana Blockchain, promising to restore the spirit of HODLing and make meme projects great again.

$Val is a generational storyline, evolving from childhood to adulthood, ultimately building an empire as a meme queen! This signifies that the team is here to create something valuable for the long term.

A long-term vision requires a solid illustration that convinces people—and I’m glad I delivered!

Achievements:

•Established excellent brand recognition for $Val

•Created a unique 10,000-piece NFT collection

•The rebrand process attracted more traction to $Val and built an organic community (zero KOLs—people simply believed in the vision, and volumes followed)

•Positioned $Val as a unique entity among other meme tokens	

•Replaced AI-generated images with compelling, hand-crafted artwork

$Val is here to build for the long haul and redefine the perception of meme tokens!
