Spaceship painting stream tomorrow

I'll be starting in on January's monthly painting tomorrow on picarto: https://picarto.tv/Amarynceus 

As usual I'll be trying to stream the whole process, from sketch to completion.  I've picked the ship I'll be...

Quick Update

Ahoy all,

Apologies for the radio silence, I've been terrible at communication lately and I need to do better. 

 I'm going through some tough times at home right now; my family unit of the last 20 years is coming apart (and has been for some time).  Things have been 2019-10-15 16:01:03 +0000 UTC View Post

Where the Money Goes

I wanted to make it clearer how I use the money you give me!  I've laid out some of this information before but more transparency and clarity never hurts. 

Thanks for all of your support. <3

Two Year Anniversary!

It was two years ago that I launched my Patreon.  Huge thanks to all of you for your support, patience and encouragement through some very difficult times.  I haven't always done as well as I'd like and am perpetually behind on things, but I've always done my best, and will continue to ...

It Gets Better

I did this as a gift recently for one of my patrons who is in a rough place and contacted me while contemplating suicide.  I didn't know what to do besides offering encouraging and understanding words, and I am not good with words, so I drew this for them as the first thing that I could thin...

Goodbye 2018, Hello 2019

Ahoihoi!

     It's been quite a year.  I would like to do a grand retrospective, because I've accomplished a lot, but I'm still too worn out!  So, just some brief news items instead.

*    I'll continue to be on vacation for the next we...

Daily Doodle #999

Almost there!

Not much more to say, other than thank you all for your support and your patience and for allowing me to prioritise this project.  I don't think there's a single person on the reward tiers that I don't owe art to at this point, among others.  ^^'  Thanks for sti...

October Update

Hey all! o/

Just wanted to touch base as another month is upon us!  Thank you so much for your support, I can't express how much it means to me.  And welcome aboard to new patrons!

Not too many items to cover, as I think I summed up my plans for this month in the last update.  ...

It's September! Who Authorised That?!

It’s September! Hope everyone is getting a small break this Labour Day.

First and foremost, thank you all for your continued support, and for the new patrons, welcome aboard! <3 So happy to have you here.

For those on reward art tiers, don’t hesitate to claim your art and...

Computer Problems

Computer issues have slowed my production to a crawl over the last week.  I'm not completely sure but I think my hard drive is slowly dying.
Still working on getting remedial measures to get some more life out of my work beast until I can afford a new one.  Also my stylus might be dyi...

Patreon Tier Revisions

*edit* OH something I forgot to add!

Because of negligence on my part and shifting goal structures, anybody who's been in the $10 tier for 3 months or more can request one free drawing for me as thanks. 

With the Patreon about to go live again, I have completed my revisions of the tiers...

Daily Doodle #571

So.... we arrive once more at the end of another month in which I hoped to get current with all the art I owe people, and once more I have not managed to do so.  I am now 100% sure that I am pausing the Patreon for June; no pledges made in May will be charged, and I will be devoting the bulk of...

Announcement about rewards

I have two new rewards for the $3 and higher tiers

• Daily doodles available a day early.
• Voting on a subject for a monthly painting, which will be created during a stream.

Also, an announcement regarding the $10 tier; since I haven't produced the extra content I had expec...

Picarto stream recordings

Several of you are unable to attend my regular streams but would like to see them; as of today I have started having OBS record as I stream and I will be archiving those somewhere we all can access them.

For now, as some of you (as well as myself!) were wondering how to get at the picarto recordin...

State of the Artist - February 2018

No doubt some of you have been wondering at my erratic posting and generally lower production of the last few months. I’m going through some of the biggest changes in my life, and it’s interfering with my ability to make art something fierce. In short, my family has been further diminished in a ...

Happy New years and Thank You

I wanted to do an elaborate Thank You picture and such for everyone to express my gratitude for all of your kindness and support over this past year.  Unfortunately things have been rather crazy around here, so mere words will have to do until I can get the art done.

So.

Thank you, from...

Patreon fee changes

Dear Patrons,

As many of you may know by now, Patreon is set to implement a terrible decision regarding fee structures.  I'm too angry and distracted to be very coherent about it right now, but this post by Ryan North ...

November changes

Ahoy shipmates!  I've got some changes to announce to the reward tiers this month.

First of all, I'm cancelling 'WIP Wednesdays' because (a) they were not happening very often and (b) I really actually don't like sharing many of my Works in Progress.  Also (c) you can tune into a picarto...

Inktober Week One round-up

Plus a bonus shot of my workstation because why not.

In shot are the sum total of the tools I've used for all the drawings: one 0.3 Koh-I-Noor rapidomatic mechanical pencil, purchased in the Reed College ...

Recovering from Illness

Sorry about it being so quiet around here; as most of you already know, I've been very sick.  This illness I'm recovering from basically ate the last two weeks, so the reward artworks will be delayed a bit.  I'll be working hard to get everything current as soon as I can whilst still takin...

Book Time

Reward/commission for Audrey Azura; thank you so much for everything, and thanks for being patient with me.  Even though it's still a little rough here and there, I put some extra time and effort into this one.

Cheers, and thanks to all for their support! <3

Moon Horse

No good title ideas, sorry.  Playing with some different techniques and such; not entirely happy with the results but not entirely displeased either, considering it's something that started out as just a doodle.

Note that from now on I'll be sending links to high resolution and full size file...

Bookbirb

I've been so busy lately that I completely forgot to post this reward art of the delightfully charming tiny gryph Der!  My first full gryphon in years, apart from a doodle or two!  (Thank you so much for your patience while I took forever to finish this.)

In other news, for the first tim...

Note on Discord and on Rewards

I haven't finished setting up all of my Discord server stuff yet, so Patreon will give you the option to join the channel, but then not let you in.  I'm still learning my way around Discord, but I'll get that up and running very soon!

Also, I have a more detailed account of each Tier's Reward...

It lives!

Blahhh!
