2/
When I first asked who was considered as a top French NFT artist, PBOY was the 1st name to be mentioned
Then I watched the movie about his masterpiece “The Underground Sistine Chapel”
There is simply no way back from this, I had to become a collector!

3/Crypto OG
@pascalboyart dove into Crypto very early on
He crowdfunded his murals through Bitcoin donations as early as 2017
Not only is he Crypto native but he also minted his first NFT “Daddy what's money?” in 2019
One for the NFT Archeologists! PBOY is a pioneer

4/Themes
PBOY gets his inspiration from the masters of classic art, Delacroix, Van Gogh, Rembrandt and adds a contemporary twist to their master pieces
The visual impact is always striking
The power of money & the freedom of speech are recurrent themes throughout his work

5/Technique
The quality of PBOY’s work is always on point
Inspired by Georges Seurat's pointillism and Pollock's dripping for his murals, Pascal is also an adept to collage through his Dollar's art works
His technical virtuosity quickly gained him the respect of his peers

6/Ingenious
PBOY doesn’t just “mint” a picture of an art piece but finds creative ways to engage collectors
The collecting process is always very thoughtful and he constantly tries to innovative
Treasure hunts, NFT Farming, get ready to play and use your UV light!

7/Technology
PBOY was the first to use NFT technology for Street Art, paving the way for many
But as a true believer of decentralisation, he was also one of the first to migrate his work from OpenSea to a custodial smartcontract

8/Mystic Rebel
While keeping the mystic around his true identity, PBOY is clearly a Rebel
Painting without authorisation, directly addressing the ECB and the French state through his art, dedicating a piece in support to Assange
Pascal is not one to shy away from the debate

9/Paris ambassador
@pascalboyart makes a great ambassador for Paris around the world, making people discover a different side of the city, less glamorous but very authentic
Also very active through socials, Pascal is undoxed but engaged!

10/Entourage
Hardly any speculator involved with his nfts and price floors are speaking for themselves
@Arthemort @NiwinEth @patrickjamesNFT @BnoiitC @DanPolko @jmpailhon…
Some well known CryptoArtists are also very close, including @trevorjonesart and defunct @money_alotta

11/Recognition
PBOY’s OG status is there to last
Dedicated space in CryptoVoxel, featuring in @dan_sickles movie “I'M NEW HERE”, included in many Crypto Art books & magazines, featuring at UrbanArtBiennale, this is only the beginning
Wen @MuseumModernArt & @MuseeLouvre?

12/Next drops
PBOY is slowly producing more art, never rushing the process
That’s why his collectors are eagerly waiting the next drops
2 projects are getting close:
“The 3 graces”
“Modern Venus”
NFA but keep an eye on him!
