Gabe Weis - Mixed-Media and NFT Artist and Founder of The Stoics

Leave Us a Review

Gabe Weis is a multidisciplinary artist and an absolute legend in the NFT space. When the Bay area-based fine artist is not selling out 5,000 piece collections in minutes he can be found hobnobbing with A-list celebrities like Paris Hilton and floating around in zero gravity airplanes making art.  

Aside from selling millions of dollars in NFTs and artwork Gabe readily admits that he is "pretty good at self-promotion" and an expert in marketing and building communities which no doubt are some of the keys to his massive success.

Weis doesn't hold back in this conversation and openly talks about his beginnings growing up with a cookie-cutter, rather normal childhood to opening his mind with the help of psychedelics and becoming the rising star of NFTs that he is today.

Gabe talked about how The Stoics, his most popular NFT project took off and as of today has a sales volume of about $2.25 million dollars.

From his humble beginnings and a stint in politics, Gabe still focuses on making a difference in the world. Nowadays he lets his art do the work and focuses on family, building his brand, growing his community, and piling up one surreal experience on top of the other.

It was refreshing to speak to Gabe. I can feel the authenticity and excitement come out in the way he speaks about his life. There's no doubt that he is grateful for what he's built and his inner child is still very much still a big part of his persona.

"I don't make it to be perfect...I do like the challenge of kind of getting a piece where I like it...but I haven't spent every day on them...", Gabe says.

As we artists do, we take what we like, make it our own and push forward. The artwork of Gabe Weis could be described as Picasso meets Basquiat and Weis doesn't hide those influences. His cubist artwork is colorful, raw, vibrant, bold, and iconic and his hype extends beyond the boundaries of Twitter and the NFT space.
