Abbe “DieHardBirdie” Borg, the 78-year-old gamer and artist, was one of the featured faces in the curated works at the Art Museum Gallery Mixer event held in the Museum of Graffiti in Miami, Florida last June 4, 2021. The Art Museum Gallery Mixer was hosted and sponsored by DSCVR, StrongNode, Momentum Studios, and NFT Blue alongside the Bitcoin 2021 Miami event.
“I’m very excited to have an NFT art made with my face on it. Art has always been my passion as I have done it for the past 50 years but I am enjoying my time as a gamer playing CS:GO. It’s nice to become the art piece and not the one making it,” Borg said. This marks another feat for Borg’s career and for the esports community. DieHardBirdie joins Diamondcon, a premier Call of Duty player for New York Subliners, to venture in the NFT community. Diamondcon will soon launch the world’s first esports NFT.
Abbe Borg has been an artist for the past 50 years and used paper, tissue, napkins, metal sheets, brass, and copper as his medium. Over the last five years, Borg embarked on his new career as a professional gamer and is currently streaming his game plays live on his Twitch channel. 
Recently, DieHardBirdie has been working with OGLife, a streaming and gaming platform dedicated to honoring the elderlies through esports. Abbe “DieHardBirdie” Borg serves as the OGLife’s Impact Ambassador and League Champion.

About DieHardBirdie

Before his second career as a pro gamer, Abbe was a professional artist working on metal and paper sculptures. Abbe is fond of origami and we can often find him creating interesting sculptures out of old books and crafting beautiful paper flowers for his family and friends when not video gaming. Abbe is tagged as Birdie because of his talent in mimicking bird calls and sounds by whistling with a leaf or other materials.
