Milestone Goals
Better Supplies, More Time
Our current supplies are very basic and my time to use them is extremely limited. Before the ball can really start rolling, we'll need better pastels and spray paints, as well as better quality surfaces to use them on. All of this will translate to better pieces and more frequent updates. That, in turn, will translate into more swag for everyone involved.
Kids First
It seems that as we push technology further and further forward, each new generation loses a bit of the mechanical skills that brought us so far in the first place. With enough funding, we can organize art events for kids to help build their imaginations. These will include classes and weekend art activities, schedule pending of course.
Adults, Step Up
We can't forget about our peers and elders. From here, we'll start organizing adult events such as workshops, meet-ups, exhibits, etc. Fellow artists can/will also have their work displayed at these events in honor of their contribution.
About
Hi, I'm Justin, known to a few as Justino. I'm a pastel and spray paint artist, specializing in bright colors and striking visuals. Nature provides most of my inspiration. Fictional novels fill in the gaps.

The Coast
I'm a freelance pastel, pencil and spray paint artist. Exploring techniques and styles motivates me to do what I do. I also dabble in digital art as well.
I love the visual art community and want to help make it accessible to those who don't quite know where or how to get started. Being able to do, teach, and explore art full-time is the goal in mind with your support.
Immediate goals you ask?
1. Set aside time to teach lessons.
2. Support other artists locally and internationally.
3. Lookout for my #1 fans (that's you, dear patrons).
The Horizon
This is something I want to grow into a community... a community both physically and electronically uniting artists of all walks and ages. Everyone from kids to grandparents experience and enjoy visual art on some level. With the right support, we can awaken everyone's inner artist.
Through your pledges, you help foster an artistic community through:
1. A proper studio to create and teach out of.
2. Online lessons and demonstrations.
3. Art camps, conventions, meet ups, charities, education, tacos...
