I'm not against making money as an artist. I spent my career doing just that, and I'm very grateful I was able to do so. And I'm truly thankful to all of you who support me here. Patreon encourages me to "grow my business". But, several years ago, I decided to make my page on Patreon something other than a commercial space. There's nothing to "unlock" here--every post is available to everyone, whether you are a paid member--at any level--or a free member. When posting my art here, I always choose "free access". My goal is to make this page something I would have enjoyed when I wasArticletodayPublic 0 2 Fatty ArbuckleJuly 7ArticleJuly 7Public 0 4 Dr. GoyleJune 24ArticleJune 24Public 0 0 A Bongo No-NoJune 18ArticleJune 18Public 0 2 He-ManiaWith the Masters of the Universe movie now in theaters, I thought I'd post about my own connection to the He-Man franchise.
