🔮 Fortuna x Fênix by Illustramanda 🔮

Hey fam 🤗! I was scrolling through twitter the other day and saw a tweet from artchick.eth with this dope art so obvi I went to check it out. I ended up on Amanda’s twitter and immediately fell in love with her art 💜.

Every person can find a character that resonates with them. One for those with curly hair, straight hair, or even short hair. One with tatts or without. Each character has a feature that makes us all feel more empowered, especially as women. Just like Amanda’s characters we all are strong, smart, and sexy at the same time and in our own unique ways. Personally, for me, her art reminds me to go out into the world and be the bada$$ b**ch that I am without feeling sorry for being who I am.

💅 💅 💅 💅 💅 💅 💅

A few other reasons I will be supporting this project is because we support females in the NFT industry and because this is personally changing her life for the better and if I can happen someone better their life why wouldn’t I? #nobrainer

Forget the controversy, Ignore the imitators, Support the artist

The artist, Amanda, behind Illustramanda has joined forces with Fortuna NFT to launch her first ever NFT collection aptly titled Fênix. 🔥

Fortuna NFT is an NFT launchpad where holders receive perks from each new collection developed. One of Fortuna’s central aims is to uplift other projects with targeted seed investment in women-led Web3, NFT, and crypto-related ventures. Fortuna is about women moving forwards, but this always includes sharing with those who need us the most. The first charity that Fortuna NFT donated to is Beleza Escondida, a charity aimed at combating femicide and protecting women in Brazil. The first $50,00 from sales of the first collection went toward building a shelter for abused women as the first of many humanitarian efforts funded by Fortuna (can be checked on the blockchain). As a Fortuna holder you will receive a mint pass for the upcoming collection which compensates the artist at the onset.

💫 The Rebirth 💫

Fênix is Portuguese for Phoenix as in the immortal bird derived from Greek mythology. The phoenix symbolizes rebirth and renewal as it rises from the ashes, and that is what this collection represents in Amanda’s journey. Fênix is her second chance at being a web3 sensation. Animal and spiritual motifs will be featured in the collection of 9,898 unique, hand drawn pieces of generative art. 98 is important to Amanda as this is the year she was born.
