Heya guys!
I have had a busy 48 hours! Stayed up till well past 5am last night painted new denim jackets so that they will be ready in time for this weekends markets! Today has been a whole lotta organising the things I have been meaning to do for a while...and i am so stoked to FINALLY say that I am now on PATREON!
I actually just wanted to take my first public post from there and share it on here, as i actually really quite liked writing it and thought you might quite like reading it!
"INSERT LITTLE INTRO SAYING HI TO PATREON, JUST REPLACED THAT WITH THE PREVIOUS LITTLE HELLO TO YOU ALL! "
SO.......
Heres some stuff you might want to know about me....
-Yes, I kind of am Headless...
-I am absolutely ocean obsessed, the feeling of diving under massive waves literally makes my whole body sing. Being engulfed in blue just fixes everything. I take so much inspiration from the sea, and so many of my visions for my artworks come as I am floating deep beneath the oceans waves.
- I really do want to change the world. And I think I am going to do that with my art. But for now, I really am trying to work out me! By healing myself, I feel like I will be able to give sooo much to others, but i definitely need to work more of me out before then. Shitty advice is way worse than no advice!!
-How am I going to change the world with my art? By changing my world first, and from there...we'll see!
- I am so incredibly amazed already that there are so many people here who are helping young creatives pursue their dreams. From my heart and i am sure theirs, thank you.
-My dalmatian is my painting buddy. He lays in his chair and falls asleep staring at me as a move around the page painting.
-Painting is one of the only things that I know with certainty that I am here to do. It. Makes. Me. Happy. It make me happy. How many things can you actually say that about? I am in my own world completely when I am creating, and sometimes when I take a step back and look at a finished creation I actually am shocked at what I have created. Every detail is always so important to me, to see it finished is usually a bit of a shock!
___________________ END PATREON POST_____________________
Yep, I quite liked creating these little pointers about me! I think I liked doing this because they are not necessarily something you can see from the outside...besides the constant paint stains on my skin...kind of a give away :)
So, if anyone does want to check out my patreon page there are a bunch of giveaways at I am offering as different packages consistently that you might be interested in. The other thing that I really liked about it is that the site allows you to set up visible goals and you and your patreons can see how close/ far away you are from achieving them! My first goal is to make $500 a week, massive goal but if I'm doing it I'm doing it!! This money will allow me to cover ALL my living expenses/costs so that I can spend sooo much more time creating and painting. I think to have this stress relieved will just be one of the most beneficial things that could ever happen to me and my artist endeavours. I feel like I will be able to put myself in that creative flow state so much more often and with much more ease having these financial pressures off my shoulders. I mean, yes so would everyone, so what are you waiting for? GO START A PATREON! Or post more on here!
Alight guys, go ahead and leave comments, drop me a little line about yourselves! Whats something about you that you know about yourself that others might not see straight away? This little list has made me realise the first things i appreciate about myself doesnt have anything to do with what people think of me or the way I look, so go on, write one of yours, Its re-freshing!
Thanks for everything guys! Happy Tuesday to you all :)
