Painter
An artist is a specialist responsible for the visual component. It depends on him how accurately and efficiently the crypto art of your project will be implemented.
In addition to drawing the collection, it is vital to work out the brand design – logo, font, social media banners, etc. A separate specialist is best suited for this task – a graphic designer. But at the initial stage, the artist can also perform this function.
