Warm breath, soft hunger, and stories waiting to be told.
I’ve been thinking about how I want this den to feel when someone wanders in for the first time. I want that moment to land warm and deep. An emotional pull, not a sales pitch.
So here’s where I’ve settled.
I’ll be using my signature on most pieces. It’s part of me, part of the creature behind the work, and it keeps the art feeling natural and alive without breaking the mood.
My Patreon watermark will still show up in the current que of submissions that already have it, but after that only when it makes sense. On big pieces, repost‑prone work, or things that preview Patreon content. Not every time. Not on everything. Just where it helps without getting in the way.
FA is my gallery. My den. A place I want to feel welcoming, not crowded by ads. Thank you for being here and sharing the space with me.
The den is shifting to a one‑moon delay between Patreon and public posts. A single moon of early access keeps the pack close without letting the trail go cold for everyone watching from the treeline. It keeps the public galleries alive and moving while still giving patrons the first look at everything I make.
This rhythm feels healthier for me too. As a full‑time artist who relies on commissions and community support, I want a schedule that protects my momentum instead of slowing it down. One moon gives me breathing room without disconnecting me from the wider world.
Thank you for walking with me as the den grows and settles into its new shape.

and it's gonna keep growing as you keep growing. it's the least this old wolfgon can do
Thank you kindly. It means a lot to feel you close as the den grows. If you ever want something personal from me, I’ve started offering mood‑bite commissions that work beautifully as icons and Telegram stickers. And if quiet support is more your style, becoming a patron or boosting my posts on BlueSky or Twitter keeps the den warm in its own way.
