I will solicit feedback for content from everyone, but the Patron Tier requests will be weighted so that I can address them first.
Level 4 - The Portfolio Builder


Everything from Tiers 1-3 including the videos and freebies in addition to: Regular photography packs built around a theme. For instance, the first pack will be around an archer in costume with a variety of poses to choose from. The packs will contain 200-300 images to make sure that you get thorough photo reference for your projects. I will most likely post these around the same time that I release videos. Why am creating this tier? I have found when teaching workshops that one of the last pieces of the puzzle for artists is getting good reference. So often their results are compromised, not elevated with their photography. The images are for your unrestricted personal and professional use, though you cannot re-share the photographs to others or sell them. You can use them for your artwork without copyright restrictions.
Level 5 - The Mentorship Program
Sold out!


Access to the rewards of Levels 1-3
Each time I post a video (1-2 times a month - see below*), you can send me one of your paintings for a critique via an email dedicated to this group. I will do a paint over of the image in Procreate and send you the video file of the painting process. This will allow you to see exactly what changes I make, as I make them.
I will include notes or audio with the video if needed for clarification. The goal here is to help you accelerate your learning with direct feedback on your work.
If you are interested in using Discord, please add your account details here in Patreon. This will automatically add you to my Discord server and give you access to the Mentorship Tier.
If you only want to send me one image per month (and only get charged for one), you can limit how many creations you want to support in your settings to just one
