Hello... my name is Zack Goulet. I'm an artist living in Chicago. This post is an adopt a minnow project application!

I would like to be adopted by a great whale! I am an artist seeking patronage. There are 3 patrons that I have directed this application to. @topkpop, @whatsup, and @poeticsnake. I hope one of them finds me interesting enough to support. :)

@whatsup

Dear @whatsup,

I recognize your name from Steemspeak discord chat and 'm really excited about this ADOPT A MINNOW project that's going on! I recently was talking to @ackza who is a supporter of my work and he was saying how I need to reach out to whales that could be willing to support my art and my efforts to make art relevant to the steemit community.

I have recently began to learn how to use Adobe Flash to create steemit gifs. I want to use them to embrace the steemit community.

I've been getting really into steemit and I've been telling all my friends about it and getting them to sign up. a few are @echo-bat, @hazylogic, (who are in my band) and together we actively participate in the steemit openmic event every week. Actually, after writing this post, I have to pick them up so we can record next week's song!

I want to get more followers because along with support for my visual art as a painter, I want to start a STEEMSKATE community of skateboarders who support each other here in steemit. Skateboarders are such a huge part of social media and it would blow their minds if they found out they could generate revenue put posting the awesome skate videos that they post on instagram for free.

I need to learn about how to host contests on steemit. and to get potential whale sponsors who will donate to the cause. I want to learn from the best here on steemit, and I am trying to keep my teach ability index high. I am willing to go to great lengths to see this vision come to fruition.

I love responding and 100% up-voting comments on my posts. I am not stingy with upvotes and I really just love what steemit is. I hope you see some potential in me. I look forward to any and all feedback you would give me on ANY of my posts, especially the STEEM SKATE idea.

I'm open to making cool animated gifs for anyone int he steemit community also, so if your imagination comes up with something awesome make sure you send the idea my way and we can make it happen!

Thanks for the opportunity!

Sincerely,
Zack (@web-gnar)
