Newsletter 📰 March 2025

Greetings patrons!! Wishing everybody a fantastic and warm spring thaw season. Here's an update on what's coming up with me and my art...

🥬This month:

• ooh golly I am going to be burning the midnight oil finishing this painting of as-yet-unnamed Holy/Ice character to have ready to give you guys at the start of April!! It took me a minute to find the right lighting mood for the painting but I really like where it's going and now I feel like I have a lot of momentum with it. It'll be a busy but fun weekend working on this guy. 🎨

• speaking of NAMES - man I love some of the suggestions you guys left in the comments!! I'm buried in good ideas, I gotta sift through them all and see which ones rise to the top. I think we can find a good name for this lad in there somewhere. if you have an idea you still want to submit, you have the weekend!! the thread is here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/sketch-new-help-125214577

🥬Next month:

• Next month is a bit of a mystery!! I mentioned in last month's newsletter that I might do a poll to see what you guys want to see - and I think I'm still gonna do that! Keep an eye out early next week for a poll for the high-tier patrons to vote on what you want the subject of next month's painting to be. We haven't seen Tusky in a little bit. Or, maybe it's time for another wild card painting?? 🔮

🥬May:

• Looking forward to May (and I'm sure some of you guys are too) cause that's the month we'll be seeing Coach Dad again in time to have his painting done for Father's Day in June!! haha it's one of the best holidays of the year 😝 Haven't settled on an idea for the scene yet, but he'll be the subject.

That's what's coming up with the art. IRL me had a big month, I finished DM'ing my first D&D campaign. We had the finale a couple weeks ago and it was a doozy!! I went all-out preparing custom artwork, sound, writing, and crafting a full immersive experience for my players. I'm so psyched it all went well - it was a proper culmination of a 3.5 year long storyline. A bit bittersweet that it's all over and done now. But, I'm thinking I might get my first tattoo ever to commemorate the campaign since it was such a big part of my life for so long. If I do, I'll show you guys how it turned out 😁

Hope you guys are all doing well wherever you are, and as always, a huge and heartfelt THANK YOU from me for all your support of me and my art!!! 💚💚💚
