Just a personal note~
Added 2016-11-12 02:10:39 +0000 UTCHey guys, I'll keep this short! No bad news, I just wanted to send out a little note :)
I try to post a lot about how grateful I am that you all have made my Patreon endeavor a success, because I really truly am. The past couple days I've been really reminded of this; my kitty, who I've had for twelve years, suddenly came down with some really scary symptoms and had to go to the vet. She's fine now, and it seems like things looked scarier than they were. But I realized how lucky I am to be able to afford the care she needed. In January when I lost my full time job and decided to try Patreon, I was incredibly nervous that I wouldn't be able to make a living at it and would end up having to take another job I didn't really want to cover my expenses; I feel a lot more comfortable with how things are going these days, and being able to take care of my cat really reminded me how lucky I am.
So I just wanted to let you guys know again how grateful I am~ I try not to get too personal about stuff because I know you guys are here for art and not to hear about my personal life, but this meant a lot to me, and I just wanted to share :)
Thank you~

2016-11-12 15:29:31 +0000 UTCI was taught that art is not a luxury. It is worth working hard for, from both the creator and patron standpoints. You are an amazing example of what can be achieved with consistency, love of subject and continuing to move forward with your projects. You inspire me. Every. Single. Day. Thank you!
2016-11-12 13:36:44 +0000 UTCPatronage of the arts is a worthwhile endeavor. I love seeing your art, and I'm glad to help you and kitty in some small way. Be well!💗
2016-11-12 12:02:27 +0000 UTCI'm super happy and proud to be able to support you and keep helping you do this! C: You're welcome AND thank you!

2016-11-12 04:02:34 +0000 UTCAs someone who is owned by two cats, I completely understand the financial fears when one of them gets I'll. I'm glad I could be part of a process that helped. Give her an ear skritch for me please. 😆
2016-11-12 03:47:37 +0000 UTCIm actually one of those people who worries about complete strangers constantly, so I absolutely love hearing any news. I'm so so so happy to hear that your cat's doing all right and that you're liking your life right now. It's nice to hear someone get to that point :) Good or bad, I'll happily listen to your news. Everyone needs to be heard. I'd actually love to hear more from you if you were willing.

2016-11-12 03:29:57 +0000 UTCYou are so welcome! I always enjoy your art even if I don't get the chance to comment much. So glad that I could help out a tiny bit. Stay strong and hang in there. I have 2 cats so I completely understand how much they take over a household (and heart).

2016-11-12 02:21:33 +0000 UTCAs someone who is owned by five cats, I'm very happy to learn that your community of patrons has made that kind of difference for you. My feeling is that as patrons, we're here to support you - the whole you - so if you want to share something personal, if you need emotional support, we're here for you.
Deb Walsh
2016-11-12 02:21:07 +0000 UTCLove you, your art, and your toe-beaned friend; I'm glad that she's feeling better and that my contribution is able to help with things like this.

2016-11-12 02:19:31 +0000 UTCI feel that it's fine for you to post whatever you want. It's really different to be able to connect with an artist, it's more personable. If they don't want to read it's just as easy to skip it. Either way I like to read it all. I'm glad to be able to support you in this kind of exchange. (I'm also glad I was finally able to use paypal, my parents snoop on my credit card bills even though I'm 28) Fur babies are very important.
