this is me: inspired by @teamsteem

This weekend I spent some time creating thoughtful content to publish on Steemit.

It took me about three hours to write these profound words about my path as an artist and a human being:
https://steemit.com/story/@unusualconcept/who-are-we-really-an-existencial-tale-of-cosmo-punk.
I took my time, I was emotionally and consciously engaged, it was meaningful...
but then i posted it and i only got 18 votes...
I felt frustrated, because there it was, a piece of me, of who I am, and maybe it was too much to read, too boring or too cryptic... I bet a lot of you felt like that too :P

So...
...I decided to create this story sharing some pictures of me, for you to connect the girl to the art work and the Unusual project. This was supposed to be a joint account, for me and Pedro, my partner in life, but I took over, since of the two, I'm the most excited about this community spirit and i really want to make a difference :)

As I referred in the title, i was inspired by this post,

Thank you @teamsteem for inspiring so many people, including me.
I first wrote a comment there:
"That's what i believe, there's still a whole book full of blanc pages to write on steemit, that allow each one of us to be authentic and share meaningful and profound insight... I believe: the more authentic, the more you reach out and attract authentic sensible human beings... when we stand together in recreating a fair honest and sustainable community, we evolve a market made to adapt, made from and for the people. So our content, our honest human content can be of great importance to establish diversity and constantly recreating a dynamic and evolving platform for starving artists to thrive with their own work.
Still, I have mixed feelings of amazement and excitement, frustration and creative survival mode.
We're currently offering 20% discount on all our pieces; https://steemit.com/promotion/@unusualconcept/20-off-on-all-our-products
it's a way to offer something, as well as getting our work known and find some support in this community. Lately things have been harder with our project like never before, this whole world war climate, we can't sell enough to pay the bills, it's hard to think on a virtual currency when you're constantly surviving from penny to penny. Thanks to Steemit, we have hope and a community that truly understand the struggle an artist faces in this kidnapped world."

Thanks to this collective insight, i started to wonder, maybe i should share more of my humanity, by sharing my face... normally i wouldn't think about it, i don't give much though into the physical and image part, since I'm already sharing my deep thoughts, art and crafts with this wonderful community. But maybe, to reach more people, sharing good content without a face is not enough...

This is a photo of me, in a red dress, with my cousin and friends;

This is from a trip me and my friends made to Barcelona, it was a great moment, i was 18.

And this one is from a arts and crafts event in Porto, a beautiful city with very unique people :)

Hope you enjoy, let me know your thoughts and let's grow together!
