Niki Jackson Art

Welcome to my Patreon Community!
Who am I? I'm Niki Jackson, a self employed artist from the UK. I live in the countryside with my Hubby Mark and our two Dalmatians Ellie and Skye. I've been an artist all my life but professionally I've been creating and selling my work since 2007 on the internet and locally. My work has travelled to many countries of the world, sold in a local gallery and been involved in many craft shows and exhibitions locally and overseas.

I'm an avid learner, especially when it comes to art so in 2017 I embarked on furthering my art skills by enrolling on an Illustration degree via the OCA who offer art courses for mature students in a distance learning format. I'm just finishing my first level (since it's part time) and am very excited to start my second level next year.

What do I create? I love to paint in acrylics and use other media to mix things up and I also love to draw. In the last couple of years I've really been enjoying digital drawing on Procreate. You can see a lot of my art process on my You Tube channel to get a flavour of what I do. I take inspiration mostly from nature, animals, cute and pretty things but am open to exploring new ideas.

So what's this Patreon about? We are a community who love art! Whether it's buying it to support our favourite artists or learning about it to create our own art businesses. We share behind the scenes goodness of everything that happens as a self employed artist. The art itself, how it's created, what tools I use, how I build my business to make money as an artist and where I get my inspirations from.

All this goodness is shared in a variety of ways, such as podcasts, blog posts, videos, and exclusive art to collect. So if you want to learn more but don't have much income right now, you can still join us for $1 +vat. You'll get access to the current month's content as well as all previous content too!! There is a lot of content back here to enjoy as we have been going for quite a while now!!

There are several tiers to choose from so take a look and see which level is right for you. Whichever one you choose you can change it at any time if you want to up or down grade.
I've just added some new tiers which now include exclusive prints, vinyl stickers and custom art!!

Patreon also now allows you to sign up in your own currency, so you know exactly how much a tier costs for the month. Stay as little or as long as you'd like, you'll be welcomed just the same :)

I do hope you can join us on this fun art adventure!
Love
Niki x
