Description I've been debating opening a Patreon for ages, and I finally decided to bite the bullet and do it!  This Patreon campaign is aimed at affording me time to work on personal projects, such an my world of TeaFeathers.  The vast majority of my creative energy is spent on making commissions; bringing other people's ideas to life with my skills.  While I thoroughly enjoy working on commissions, I do lament my inability to really dig my teeth into projects and stories that have been in my head for a long time.  This will benefit anyone who is interested in those projects, because I may finally have the time to make them and produce them for sale!  Comics, illustrated books, themed print series... I have a lot in store if this goes over well.

If you're curious how I've set things up and what I have to offer, please check it out!  www.patreon.com/Eskiworks

To be clear, this will in no way impede work on existing and future commissions!  If you're a client of mine awaiting art, let your mind rest on that topic.  I also wish to assure opponents of the Patreon system that this is not a paywall!  All finished art created with Patreon funds will be posted publicly.  In fact, this will assist me in making new content for people that's been waiting to come to fruition for years! Patron rewards are instead geared towards offering physical rewards for your patronage, as well as other exclusive opportunities.

Thanks everyone for taking a look!  I'll be at Rainfurrest this weekend handing this piece out as a free 4" X 6" postcard at my table in the dealer's den, table #36 - www.rainfurrest.org/2015/deale…

I just finally set up my patreon today myself. I am bit confused by some of it, but hopefully I'll have it figured out. So far I'm kind of poking around to see what some other people are doing as a reward system and stuff. Good luck to us!

 I wish the best of luck in hopes that you can get time to paint what you'd like! It would be fascinating to see the world of teafeathers really start up more!

Just make sure you have your rewards set for AFTER the billing period has past, there has been SOOOO much theft from artists via patreon lately its become a serious problem because users can just pledge, gain access, save your art an then remove ther payment option before the billing period. 

You are such an amazing artist, and your name is very well known, please be careful <3

And, if you check out the Patreon page itself, I mention that rewards are only mailed after pledges are process too!  I wanted to set this up to avoid that exact issue, it's been making me so sad to see my fellow artists getting stolen from on such a vast scale...
