In the winter, I started a series about liminal spaces. I did a couple, and then I penciled this one...and then my energy left me completely. To be quite honest, I lost any inspiration to continue doing art at all and making a Patreon has really helped me feel like I'm not just treading water.
Here's an overview of the projects I have currently started. I usually cycle through different projects like this, and I have to-do lists describing what state they're in now so I don't get lost. At 32, my memory is not so great.
Which are you most interested in seeing done next? For fun or for serious :))
Project 1:
Surreal portrait of this winter girl. Part 3 ...
Here's a little painting made from a photo I took on a hiking trip. This really fine moss was growing on rock surfaces in the forest, peppered with tiny mushrooms. I thought it was a really fun abstraction of the landscape. In ways, it looks like tree tops from far above in the sky, but it's not in reality.

This is an ongoing poll I'll leave open for a while.

Welcome to my first real Patreon post! I am so excited to share this on here before it's scanned & ready for my shop, and without spreading myself thin posting WIPs all over social media. So refreshing to put it all neatly in one post.
I attached the reference I used for this painting. It is a rainy photo I took in downtown Mont...

It's a huge step for me to make a Patreon page. I am the kind of artist and the kind of person who will almost never ask for help and suffer through anything I have to on my own. I hold myself fully accountable for my destiny and never expect anything for free.
