Hello, everyone!  My name is Cherie Gerhardt and I am a digital painter of fantasy, pop culture, and wildlife/animal art.  Currently I am the artist and manager of Mystic Moon Media LLC.

What’s my goal here on Patreon?
To bring my magical ideas into reality, and give back to my wonderful followers while doing it!  I have been painting my creations since the early 2000s, making them not only my hobby, but my livelihood, as well.  Creating art is what I was born to do and I put a little bit of my soul into each painting. But now, after years of trying to recover from a neurological issue, I need to take pause and reflect on what really matters... family, health, and my passion for life! I am needing to pull myself together as my soul has been stretched too thin. I need to work on not only what matters, but who matters!  Those of you who follow me faithfully, my supporters, you matter!  Without you I could not do what I love and live to do - my art!

I am needing more time in my studio to produce these creations, to pull the sketches that have been waiting patiently for their turn to be finished.  So, I am here to ask you for help.

What will you post on Patreon? Anyone and everyone can follow me here. They can read my up-to-date posts about new art, sales, upcoming events, videos, and much more. Those who pledge to my account will not only get access to these posts, but you will also get to view my Patreon-Only "Behind the Scenes" posts. You will not find Patreon-Only "Behind the Scenes" posts on any other social media site, ie: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. These posts are where you will get a look at me personally: what I love, what inspires me, why I paint the things that I paint. Also, I would love to hear from you, my pledges! Your questions, comments, thoughts, and feedback would be greatly welcomed and appreciated.

Will there will be perks for supporters? Yes! Once again - you matter! For those who support me and my art, I will offer all sorts of perks, or if you will, rewards. These rewards will be small at first, but as my Patreon grows and grows so will the rewards. This is my way of saying thank you for all of you who matter.

So thank you again, my supporters!  Thank you for visiting me on Patreon.  I look forward to our many conversations and interactions in the near future.
