Would you fellas hold it against me if I dropped this "one-pic-a-day" thing? It's produced no results from Patreon, and frankly, I'm feeling burnt out and my work is starting to suffer.

Hey folks. Last year I had abandoned my Patreon due to lack of interest/donators. At the start of this year, I gave it some serious thought and I realized I was having some ideas WAY above my station when I did the "exclusive pics" thing, and $20 a month was too much to ask of my fans.

Therefore, I've made the decision to revert Patreon back to a tip jar.

All the pics I had on the site as "exclusives" will be released to the public soon enough. However, if you like my art, please consider supporting me by donating at least a dollar. To rip off Wikipedia, if everyone on my watch list donated a dollar, I'd be well off financially.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, and thanks for you support!

I got the idea for this from some people on my watch list, so here's a list of the stuff I will and won't draw, for posterity/commission purposes:

Hope this helps!

Just wondering if any of you would mind if I drew more yaoi in the future.

First off, Happy New Year, everyone!

As you know, I wanna resolve to get working on my Patreon again, since I gave up on it around the start of winter.

My question to you is: What do you want to see from me, artwise, to get you (and others) to consider supporting me?
I'm open to your suggestions!

1. Quit my job

2. Give Patreon another try

3. Use that exercise bike in my living room more than thrice a week

Hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas, a Happy Hanukkah, a Krazy Kwanzaa, and a Bestivus Festivus to the rest of...... you.

Happy Holidays, everyone!

That's right, folks, I'm streaming again! I'll take requests and commissions!

Sorry, folks, but it seems I'm still in my funk.

I'm still in "artistic burnout" mode, and I can't seem to draw anything more complex than doodles. Slogging through my art hasn't done me any good, but just sitting around doing nothing isn't doing me good either. I'll be going on vacation next week, see if that helps.

For those of you who are expecting commissions from me, I sincerely apologize for the delay, and I'll try to get them done before I go on vacation.

In related news, there will be no Patreon exclusive for November. Again, my apologies.

If any of you guys know how to deal with burnout, please tell me how. Thanks.

Okay, I've rested up enough! Back to drawing!

...been feeling a bit burnt out as of late, I guess I should put the stylus down and relax for 2 or 3 days.

I WILL have the exclusive posted on October 1st though, along with another project I'm working on, so don't you worry!

... Vi and Jynx win! They'll be the subject of the October Patreon exclusive pic!

Well, Erika's dead. Worst Florida's getting is a week of muggy weather. Now that that's out of the way, back to drawing! :D

As you already know, I live in Florida. And there's a likely chance Erika's gonna hit very soon. And if she does, chances are excellent the power in my city will be knocked out.

I'm saying this now in case the storm hits (god forbid) none of you get concerned in case I "disappear" from FA for 2-3 weeks without warning.

Don't worry about me, I've stocked up on dry goods, bottled water, and batteries and I've got my laptop charged, in the chance there's still free Wi-Fi somewhere in the aftermath and I can keep in touch with FA. But for the most part, if the power gets knocked out (again, god forbid), I won't be able to upload any art, so I apologize in advance for that.

If there are any fellow Floridians in FA, stay safe, and I hope to come back with an update soon!

Hey folks, as you know, it's back-to-school week, so things are gonna get pretty strenuous at my workplace. I'm still gonna try to post art with the same frequency as before, but I can't make any guarantees. Hopefully, things calm down around Humpday, but we'll see. Wish me luck.

... I am now officially 32 years old.

...Fluttershy wins! She'll be the subject of September's Patreon exclusive!

Thanks to all who voted, and don't worry, the other suggestions will reappear in next month's poll, so they'll still get a chance to be October's exclusive!

Hello, folks. Just thought I'd make an announcement and maybe get some stuff off my chest.

Just last month, I spent 9 years at my job. The job is not paying what I need to support me anymore, I'm worn out, and it's doing some bad things to my health, physical and mental, and I really hope to turn in my notice sometime before the year is over, or at the very least early next year. I opened up a Patreon to see if I can get some solid financial footing before doing such a thing. However, it's been two months and I haven't had any luck. I realize this is my own fault, as I didn't offer any incentives for people to donate, and indeed, I didn't know what incentives to offer. Fortunately for you and me, I figured out how to rectify this.

Starting August 1st, I'm offering a batch of exclusive drawings to contributors, and will be putting out more incentives in the months to come, so please keep an eye out.

As a Patreon noob, I hope this will provide enough of an incentive, and I apologize for not doing this sooner. Please consider helping me out, I really want to make a real living doing what I love. Thank you.

I have a Picarto account now! Here's the link:
