The Journey to 848 Artworks
Creating this project has been a dream come true, but it wasn’t an easy journey. I’ve always wanted to build a website that could bring in revenue. Over the years, I’ve tried different ideas—first a blog (but I didn’t have the knack for writing articles), then an online store with dropshipping (which didn’t work out after a month).
When artificial intelligence came into the picture, everything changed. I was inspired by the idea of selling high-resolution digital art. At first, I hesitated—I worried it might be a waste of time and money. But one day, I realized I’d never know if it was a good idea unless I finished it. And so, I began working on this project, dedicating every spare moment to its creation.
The Role of My Family
My family played a huge role in this journey. While I handled everything from building the website to generating the content with AI, they supported me in the best way they could—they didn’t interfere and gave me the space I needed to work. My wife often reminded me of the importance of balance, saying, “Can your project let you spend some time with the family today?” Of course, I always made time for them because breaks and family moments are just as important as hard work.
The photo you see here is of my family—my biggest supporters. Without them, I don’t think this project would have been possible.
Overcoming Challenges
I’ve built everything on this website myself. There were moments of frustration, like when a full day’s work suddenly disappeared due to a technical glitch. That was a wake-up call for me to explore other options. Switching to WordPress turned out to be a game-changer—not only did it make the site more versatile, but it was also more cost-effective. I taught myself every step along the way, using online resources to solve problems and keep going.
Why 848?
Some might think there’s a deep, mystical meaning behind the name “848 Artworks,” but honestly, it’s just my lucky number—or, to be precise, my two lucky numbers: 8 and 48. Ever since school, these numbers have had a special place in my heart.
Fast forward to today, and you’ll find 848 everywhere in my life—my car’s license plate, my phone number ending, and now this website. It’s like a personal charm that I can’t let go of. So when it came time to name this project, I knew it had to include “848.” Otherwise, well, how could I ever hope for success without my lucky number? 😊
A Love for Technology and Creativity
Everything you see on this website was created using artificial intelligence. I simply directed the process, ensuring each piece met my vision. Sometimes it felt like AI was almost alive—it’s incredible what humanity has created for humanity.
