$2/mo✧ knight of jewels ✧♛ Access to the library of curiosities: aka my patreon feed. Welcome in! Here you'll find long form posts on sketches and drawings I never show anyone, extensive painting processes, write ups on where my ideas are coming from, inspiration through art history and illustration, music and poems and more.♛ Secret videos Sometimes I make unlisted videos on painting and drawing, (Q & As, vlogs, etc) or I share Youtube videos early; and I'll post them here. There is a small backlog now available of these vids that anyone who joins can watch.
$6/mo☽ pirate of dreams ☾♛ This tier contains the same benefits as the $2 tier, but is for anyone wanting to spend a bit more. Here's that info for a catch up:♛ Access to the library of curiosities: aka my patreon feed. Welcome in!

$20/mo✣ dragon of ruins ✣ mail club ✣♛ Monthly physical reward: the Dragon Mail. Each month you'll be mailed something new - it will always be created entirely by me and my human brain, and will fit inside a stamped envelope of some shape or size, from the smallest to the largest USPS will accept. I love physical art and I love mail and letters, so I love working on this tier. Past mailings have included: zines of my travel drawings when I go on a trip; art prints that double as paper doll cutouts; miniature versions of my yearly calendar; illustrated letters; Lord of the Rings inspired sketchbooks; vintage paper ephemera from my collections; postcard prints and literal postcards; and most often, prints of paintings I'm working on. Anyone can dip in and out of this mail club depending on whether you're interested what I'm making for the mail that month. This is where set my imagination loose, and whatever shows up in your mailbox, I'm so grateful for all the names I get to write on envelopes. ♛ International patrons included♛ Plus all previous benefits ♛ Many thanks for your support!
