Patrons of the Arts Love Patreon

I just launched my Patreon page today and I'm so excited! Patreon is a website which allows people pledge an amount of money each month (as low as $1) to gain access to an artist and their work which then allows the artist more time to focus on actually making art instead of figuring out how to get bills paid. It is a modern platform building on the rich history of the patronage of the arts.

Please visit my Patreon page and think about becoming one of my wonderful patrons who get to be part of the exclusive group that gets access to all of my patron only content like updates about projects, unique arts and crafts, made on request items, art critiques, even lessons!

For those of you who do not already know this, I am a jack-of-all-arts/crafts.  I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of San Francisco through their co-op program with the Academy of Art College where I specialized in equine oil painting.  Since then I have gone on to own my own arts and crafts business creating many different yarn, fabric, bead, and other sundry crafts over the years.  I have also taught art classes at multiple venues.    

It is my hope that Patreon will give me the incentive to find the time to make more art, the funding to afford that time, and, most importantly, a venue where lovers of arts and crafts can follow me on my journey and get an in-depth view of the creative process.  No artist survives without a community.  I hope you will be a part of mine!
