Manga teacher, illustrator, cosplayer

Hi! I am Mina (known as MistiqArts) and I am a professional illustrator/ longtime manga artist/ teacher. I'm a self employed freelancer, living from my art and I had luck to be able to publish a "How-to-draw" manga drawing book. My art is not just my living, it's the way I live my life. From time to time, I tend to go completely crazy, and relax with cosplay, which is completely intertwined with my art. I like to cosplay characters I like to draw.

I fell in love with manga drawing since 2003 and got seriose and professional since 2006 and now my goal is to make it a living and create more art. Being a freelancer introduced me to some awesome people from the gaming world, like Bioware.


But that's my life. What I like to do most is sharing my art and my knowledge with you. On my YouTube channel you can find my tutorials, free forever, created for absolute beginners or as a refresher for people who once drew and want to pick it up again. On the other side, I teach manga style drawing 3 times a week at manga workshop. Well who said life is fair? All I want to do is make more free art and more tutorials, but between manga school and other freelance projects, I don't have much time for what I love.

This is your cue !!!

You can help me to share more stuff and more tutorials on all my channels (Facebook, Deviantart, YouTube, Instagram etc) if you decide to be my pledgers through this Patreon page. It won't be free offcourse, your pledge will guilt me away to give you a run for your money (me running around, doing chores).

When will the rewards be distributed?

All rewards will be sent at the start of the following month. For example, if you pledge in May, you receive your rewards the first week of June. 
Patreon processes payments after each month is over, so I can not review and confirm all pledges until then.


When will you be charged?

Patrons are charged at the beginning of each monthly cycle (usually the 1st or the 2nd of each month).

When will rewards be sent?

Patron rewards (monthly raffles) will be sent between the each month AFTER the card has been processed.

How can I contribute?

Feel free to suggest changes or new themes at any time! I can't always promise that I will be able to comply, but I love feedback. I want Patreon to be a safe place for my Patrons to feel creative and influence each others inspiration. Don't be shy, every Dollar helps.

Oh, just not to forget, the list of my chores (the ones you will be making me to run):
