so i joined patreon!!! now what? 🫢 I have been looking for alternatives to share my work and I've decided to make the jump to patreon! so far i've got lots of content as i'm treating it as a newsletter/blog where i can really go in depth about my process. basically anyone can access the free content, i.e: my work, my process and updates about local events either i am hosting or that are relevant to my practice! there are 3 paid tiers - 2$, 5$ and 10$ a month. these tiers come with access to the free content and some merch that will be shipped to you every month! i've got lots of ideas for stuff to put out and i am so excited for this next chapter focusing more on my art and less with social media engagement. that being said, please share the news! it helps me out a lot and will make the move over the patreon even easier. link in my bio to check out my patreon! or in comments! thanks for looking! #art #collage #collageart #queer #queerartist #smallbusiness #patreon
