The Artist Behind The Budz!
Who is MJG?! 👀
An Artist driven by positivity. “I believe in being your best self and doing what you truly love.”
With roots on the East coast, Michael James got his start on Cape Cod, MA. He made a move to Boston to continue his practice, teach workshops and classes, and ultimately took the leap to chase his dreams in Brooklyn, New York. MJG has followed his art path with purpose. The last 6 years has seen MJG working as a professional artist in traditional mediums, with large scale paintings popping up in restaurants, galleries and private collections spanning the West and East Coasts. Expanding into digital media, he quickly began to realize the true potential for artists and creators alike!
Web 3…The Future!! 🤯
MJG began looking beyond the canvas and into the Web3 world after seeing the endless possibilities presented by digital art. The opportunities for artists of all kinds to follow their true passion became very apparent. From sculpture and drawing to music and photography, art has never had opportunities like this before! Scale, form, and medium are truly limitless, and can only continue to be expanded upon. There is a new world in which to create that must be explored!
What’s the Big Idea?! 💡
The idea is only the beginning! Merging the physical and digital art world has endless possibilities. The goal is to share Augmented Reality Immersive Gallery Shows that span worldwide as well as shared studio spaces where young artist can have exposure while creating side by side. A social space to think, talk, create, and push the boundaries of art in all directions!
Art Across Worlds?! 🖼
“No part of me will ever abandon my other mediums! Clay, charcoal, oil paint, or screens, I have learned to look at them all as tools. Tools to convey my message. It is this simple”.
Creating generative series, 1/1 NFTs with matching paintings, original prints, project sketches and so much more is just a start of what is to come. CoffeeBudz NFT is simply the beginning of the future!
Coffee, Cannabis, and Creativity! ☕️💨🎨
“We are CoffeeBudz”!
Coffee is first and foremost! The drink of champions, a motivator that drives individuals to chase after the day, a means of spending time at coffee shops talking with artists, friends and other creative individuals. A love, appreciation and use of cannabis has helped countless individuals and we are only beginning to realize all its potentials. Whether it’s relaxing and focusing on mental health, addressing physical wellness with CBD or expanding the mind, getting a little extra creative is never a bad thing! The two combine and complement each other perfectly to get the creative process flowing. ✌🏼💜
