So I’m coming to a hard realization the art market is hit and miss with sales. I’ve got a couple sales lined up and hope to pick up more, but sales have been very slow of late. What I really need is patrons/sponsors. Grants would be great too. I’m applying for one in December. Being realistic though I’m unlikely to get it my first try however. So here is what I am proposing.

Sponsor for a week

$30

You will get 5 sketches a day
OR
2 sketches a day and one digital bust

Sponsor for a month

$100

You will get 4 sketches a day AND two digital busts AND a full digital painting
OR
5 sketches a day AND one digital bust AND one real media painting shipped to you

If you are interested in sponsoring/acting as a patron for a longer period, message me and we can work out an agreement. The sketches you will provide me a general theme (ie your character, cats, cute animals) but nothing specific- these are digital only BUT you may pay extra to have the originals shipped to you if you wish for $5 plus cost of postage (the $5 covers mailing supplies/cost of gas to the post). The busts you may provide a pet or character and a mood/setting, but no getting extremely fussy about details ok? Ie don’t send me a page of exactly how you want it posed and every last detail. The digital or real media full painting you CAN be more specific about detail and give me a long winded description if you like. You are paying more so you get more. These prices are at a discount to my usual rates. If you have something super specific in mind, it’s best to commission me directly. Rates can be found here:

I will also accept some trades for commissions for items I want. Message me for my wish list of items I am looking to acquire (the old list is outdated) . Most aren’t on sites which let me use public wish lists, but I can link you to the items. Amazon is the only one I can link straight to a wishlist as far as possible trades go. Just ignore the fact it lists paperbacks and hardcovers for books. I can read kindle books on my iPad so kindle editions are fine when working out a trade.

Any takers? With the holidays coming up this could be a perfect way to get low cost personalized gifts for your loved ones!

I would like to do a couple trades. Anyone game for it?

So I am taking requests for iPad arts right now. I'm way hopped up on pain meds, and still in pain so quality may be iffy but its free right? I need a distraction to get me through til my next dose of meds. Fire away. Will delete this when requests close.

At 9pm CST I will be streaming myself attempting to do the ultimate Star Wars holiday party pic including ALL the characters from the daily sketches (including one which I hope to post tonight). This is 27 characters in a single pic.

Dooku, Valorum, Ahsoka, Padme, Palpatine, Jocasta, Plagueis, Jabba, Sy Snoodles, Lando, Wicket, Jar Jar, Stormtrooper, Nuvo Vindi, Cad Bane, Hondo, Obiwan, Chewbacca, Boba Fett, Vader, Tarkin, Daala, R2D2, Ikrit, Yoda, Mara Jade, Ben

Note that livestream's chat function isn't working for me so I will have the stream up in a window and be checking it from there so I might be slow to respond but I will be chatting.

I will be livestreaming starting about 8:30pm CST. I'll be working on finishing up trades and commissions. As a heads up the chat function is not working with the newest update unless I want to downgrade flash, so I will have my channel up in Firefox to chat but I may be slow to reply as I have to tab between windows to check it. Come keep me company! If I have time at the end I will take a few speed paint requests
