Studio Space
I've got this awesome unheated, unwired shed in my back yard. Once I hit this level, I'm going to start refurbishing the shed into a proper studio space instead of putting a leaf in my kitchen table and working there at 6am. I'll insulate and wire the shed and put a heater in there so I can work in the winter time. I'll also be able to play my tunes out loud and maybe do some livestream drawing sessions.

Hi,
My name is Tony Dowler, and I make maps.
What am I making?
You can expect maps and drawings of strange worlds and places inspired by games, science fiction, and fantasy. My goal isn’t just to make some nice maps, but to create some unique artworks that just wouldn’t exist without your support. You can good idea of my artwork from my Web site. hope to present a new piece of completed art about every 6 weeks, but my eventual goal is to finish one a month.
These will be moderate-sized pieces, typically between 11"x17" and 24"x36", some color, some black and white. I can’t promise that you’ll like everything I create, but I can guarantee I won’t ask for your support for any artwork I don’t think is among the best I can produce. You also always have the option of cancelling your pledge.
At some point, I’ll have enough artwork for a show. When we get there, I’ll arrange for a space and throw a party. Naturally, you’ll all be invited!
What can I give back to my patrons?
I’ve got some nice things planned for my patrons. If you’re contributing $5 or more, I’ll send you a numbered postcard based on each piece you help support. At the $25 level you’ll get something tangible related to each piece of art you support. It might be a small print, button, card, or something else entirely. At the $60 level I’ll also send you a small original drawing with your other perks.
Why am I doing this?
I work full time running my own business and do my drawing and painting in the early mornings. Your patronage will help me spend more time on creating interesting art and give me an easy way to share it with you.
