Cool Youthful NFT Creators（#CLNCs）
Cool Youthful NFT Creators” is, as the name suggests, a youthful version of “Cool NFT Creators.
Cool Youthful NFT Creators” is a project in which I, as a photographer, interview and introduce creators who are starting NFT as fellow creators.
I interviewed them with the hope that many people would get to know the creators who are just starting NFT.
The content is quite simple.
Each time, we ask one creator a variety of questions and have him or her answer them.
We use the creators’ own words as text, so you can get a sense of their personalities and atmosphere.
KiraBlueSo let’s get right to the creators!
Cool Youthful NFT Creators #1 “kaitei”
This time, we would like to introduce you to kaitei.
As some of you may have noticed, the icons we use on PFP were drawn by kaitei.
He is a creator with a wonderful sensitivity to express the depth of expression, with the power of his drawings to leave a lasting impression despite their light atmosphere.

Cool Youthful NFT Creators Interview
Here is the interview.
Let’s get started.
I was starting from the very bottom, so I put it on with the determination to continue on this path.
KiraBluekaitei, nice to meet you!
Please begin by introducing yourself.
kaiteiNice to meet you, my name is kaitei.
Sorry I couldn’t think of anything else… 😣.
KiraBlueIt’s hard to come up with something like that if you ask me out of the blue.
May I ask what you do then?
kaiteiI’m trying every day to be an illustrator!
KiraBlueWhen I first saw your name “seabed”, I was very impressed.
kaiteiIt is a combination of various meanings, including four-letter words and song titles, but the foundation means my starting point.
KiraBlueSo that’s what it means.
It is submarine, deep, in terms of starting point.
kaiteiAlso, since we were starting from the very bottom, we were prepared to go down this road and put it on.
KiraBlueStarting from the very bottom of the barrel is an amazing sense of determination.
It was hard to know how to proceed and I was at a loss.
KiraBlueSince this article is about introducing creators who are starting NFT, I am sure many readers are interested in what made you decide to start NFT.
kaiteiI was originally interested, but didn’t know how to proceed, and was at a loss when a kind soul approached me and got me started! 🙇
KiraBlueThere are indeed many creators who are interested in NFT but do not know how to proceed.
I hope this site and articles will be helpful to such creators.
KiraBlueDo you have a favorite NFT collection?
kaiteiNFT has a variety of art and I hope to find it in the future 💪
KiraBlueI think there are many collections that will be helpful to you as you begin your NFT.
I think it is important to look at many different collections, so please find a collection you like.
A look that allows you to imagine a variety of emotions and possible backstories.
KiraBlueNow I would like to ask you some questions about your work.
What kind of work environment do you use to create your artwork?
kaiteiThe application used is Ibis paint.
I use artisulD22s or smart phones.
KiraBlueIt’s amazing what you can draw on your phone.
KiraBlueHow did you come to your current style?
kaiteiI liked the beautiful, the pretty, the fragile, the slightly shadowy atmosphere that doesn’t depict blood, so that’s the kind of atmosphere I try to create in my drawings!
KiraBlueIt is true that I sense a bit of shadow in Mr. Seabed’s work.
Personally, I like that shadow.
KiraBlueWhen you paint people, is there a specific order in which you paint them?
kaiteiAfter drawing a simple silhouette of the entire body, the face is drawn.
The face starts from the eyes.
KiraBlueYour works are very impressive in the way they express complex emotions.
kaiteiI like slightly ambiguous facial expressions, which can be interpreted differently by different people, but there is no correct answer, so I am conscious of drawing facial expressions that allow the viewer to imagine the various emotions at that moment and to think about the underlying story.
KiraBlueA facial expression that can be thought of as a backstory.
Perhaps the mind boggles when you see the expression because it is drawn with that awareness.
KiraBlueI think the way you paint the colors also expresses your view of the world, kaitei. What is your intention?
kaiteiI like light colors, so I often create illustrations with low saturation.
I also like blue-green and gray, so I often use similar colors.
Thanks to the followers who say they like me, I have made it this far.
KiraBlueHow do you plan to work as an NFT creator in the future?
kaiteiI hope this article will help those of you who know me, as well as those abroad and others who paint, to know about my paintings!
KiraBlueIs there anything else you would like to tell us other than the questions you have just asked?
kaiteiTotally unrelated, but colors have meanings, so it’s interesting to look up the meaning of your favorite color ✊
KiraBlueI was surprised to hear something that has nothing to do with the work or NFT lol, but the meaning of color certainly seems profound.
KiraBlueAny final comments for our readers?
kaiteiMy pictures are still a work in progress, but thanks to my followers who still say they like them, I have made it this far.
I will continue to live my life in a poor way⚰️
Thank you for reading this far! 🙇
KiraBlueThank you, kaitei, for being here today!
Summary of Cool Youthful NFT Creators #1 “kaitei
You have made a good start as an NFT creator, kaitei.
I sense a strong sense of originality in your style, and I look forward to your future development.
In this interview, you mentioned that you started at the very bottom, but I think you are strong enough to have that feeling.
