Welcome to my Patreon!

Thank you for popping in. I’m a creative who left their day job of many years in late 2016 to try my hand at drawing, writing, living on a boat, and making games. So, when I’m not helping other game developers out, I’m working on my own projects. Here are some of the things I do:

Art
Since I was young, I’ve drawn, mostly as a vehicle for sharing my ideas with others. While it’s not my focus, I do draw quite a bit and am slowly working on improving my skills and acquiring new ones. I post art here, on my Patreon, Twitter, and Artstation, and I’ll even occasionally put designs up in my Threadless Shop. 

Writing
I blog about a variety of things: Creative projects, Learning to Sail, the day-to-day reality of being a bit eccentric, and more. I’m also working on a fantasy novel. I currently have an initial draft and am working on refining this so that I can eventually publish it. 

Games
Video games have been a lifelong passion of mine, and I’m currently working on a little narrative game right now. Once this is complete, I’ll most likely be jumping into a slightly more ambitious project with my friends and family.

Sailing
I recently became a liveaboard on a sailboat. Currently, I'm learning sailing and boat maintenance. It's a unique arrangement that many people have questions about, and I'm happy to share. In my blog, I will continue adding "Suddenly Sailing" entries about this experience.

- Fancy Latte Patron status on my discord server, with access to the Fancy Latte club. I'll post Work-in-Progress images from the art that I'm working on, and let you see my terrifying to-do list! You'll also have access to a special chat channel.

Goals
$81 of $1,200 per month
Self-Sufficiency: This is the big, pie-in-the-sky one. If I'm able to bring in $1200 every month via Creaturista, it will cover all of our expenses while allowing us to maintain Blackthorn and put away some money for rainy days. After passing this threshold, I would reduce any and all side contracting I do to a bare minimum of the projects I do more for my own enjoyment than the money.
