Lovely Patrons,

What a sweetly precious thing it is to get to spend some time in my sketchbook so I could share a little time lapse with you. I wanted to paint something specifically to try to capture that floaty feeling of dreaming ahead to this fuzzy future and then ... oddly... finding yourself there?

When I first started on Patreon, ALL the goals I set seemed outrageous. The perks for hitting different milestones were made for a future that I could barely see with squinting and then - thanks to all of YOU - here we are.

Being able to support the studio space, having consistent monthly support, being able to tap into the insight of this incredible community, becoming an ambassador for a platform I truly believe in - ALL of these things are a beautiful privilege that I could never have imagined when I started this journey and it still only occasionally feels real.

One of those "real" moments was having the SuperNova and HyperNova tiers fill up. Tiers with physical rather than digital perks have always been a spot to grow really slowly and mindfully. I am so grateful to every single one of you Patrons for supporting me at any tier for any amount of time. Every single time you choose to become part of the Patreon fam it makes my lil' artist heart sing.

I'm delighted to share that I've been able to add a FEW spots to both the SuperNova and the HyperNova tiers after spending some time making sure I had my feet under me. I know a few of you have been asking about the physical perk tiers and I so appreciate you being patient while I made sure that this would make sense. There is never any pressure but I wanted to share with you here first in case you've had your eye on changing your tier.

Whatever perks you've chosen, you have all made my whole little world an utterly different place. There's a whole lot more art and one HECKKUVA community and it's all thanks to you Patrons.

Thank you, every single one of you, for making art happen.
