Today, I am officially launching my Patreon account. This is part of a larger strategy to achieve something I have longed to do all my life, to work full-time as a professional artist.

            However, such things do not come without a price. For me to become a full-time artist I must bring in a certain amount of money every month to pay the rent, car loan, medical insurance, car insurance, groceries and all of the other expenses of living in the 21st century. That means focusing first and foremost on paying jobs, only after I have met my financial responsibilities can I focus on other art projects.

            This would usually mean dropping my dreamscape postings to the bottom of the “to-do” list, but there is another way. If I can receive enough money from my Patreon then I will be able to post more often about the tales of Sky Brush or Abdul and the fennecs of Andur. Is my cast of characters from my dreamscapes worth $1.00 a month to you?

            For just $1.00 a month you can have a say, for $5.00 you could gain access to Livestream sessions where we discuss the worlds that have enchanted so many of you.  For $10.00 you can have voice on which dreamscapes I write and post; do you want more from Equestria? Andur? Angel and Knight? This is your chance to have a voice.

    Think of it as a measurement bar, on the right is paying commission and production art and on the left my dreamscape work. Sliding back and forth on the bar is an indicator. The more I receive from Patreon the more the indicator moves to the left. If you are interested follow the link in this post or click on the Patreon button on my Deviant Art front page. Take a look at my goals, and rewards. Thank you for your time.

I've never done Patreon before, but you are an amazing artist and I LOVE your Pony Dreamscapes!

So I've done the unthinkable and made my first Patreon pledge to support your dreamscapes.

Good Luck and hope you get lots of support!  I'll make mention on my Deviant Journal as well to spread the word.
