ImagineAR and Liquid Avatar say world-renowned Beatles painter Shannon will release AR-enhanced NFTs

ImagineAR Inc (CSE:IP) (OTCQB:IPNFF) and Liquid Avatar Technologies Inc (CSE:LQID) (OTCMKTS:TRWRF) (FRA:4T51) announced Tuesday that Oasis Digital Studios, together with McCartney Multimedia Inc, are welcoming Shannon, aka “The World’s Greatest Beatles Artist” to the non-fungible token (NFT) market.  The artist, known as Shannon, had a career in music before later diving into painting with a particular muse: John, Paul, George and Ringo. In 1998, Shannon was awarded the title of "The World's Greatest Beatles Artist" by the Lord Mayor of Liverpool, England. Utilizing her innovative eye, strong sense of design and inspiring creativity, Shannon has developed and perfected her painting style, the company said, and amassed legions of loyal fans around the world. Shannon, who is represented by Oasis Digital Studios and McCartney Multimedia, will begin dropping a limited series of AR-enhanced NFTs showcasing a selection of her photorealistic artwork to collectors. A presale list has been established at www.oasisdigitalstudios.com.

"NFTs represent a new opportunity for music and art fans to enjoy my work wherever they are instantly, without walls or borders." Shannons’ work is displayed around the world, including at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, and The Hard Days Night Hotel, a Beatles-themed venue that sports more than 100 paintings. With numerous awards, citations, teaching and directorships, Shannon and her work are recognized globally by her photorealistic style of painting, the company said.  Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT) are digital assets that represent a wide range of unique tangible and intangible items, from art, comic books and collectible sports cards to virtual real estate and even digital sneakers. One of the main benefits of owning a digital collectible versus a physical collectible like a rookie card or a rare-minted coin is that each NFT contains distinguishing information that makes it both distinct from any other NFT and easily verifiable. This makes the creation and circulation of fake collectibles pointless because each item can be traced back to the original issuer.
