Hello, there! For those who don't know me, my name is Živko Kondić, I go by Zhillustrator and I am an illustrator from Novi Sad, Serbia, specialized in imaginative and surreal SFF art and abstract mixed media illustration. You can see my artwork at http://www.zhillustrator.com

I have been here on Patreon for a year now. This was a big leap and a great start of my journey to become a full-time artist living off commissions and personal art after several years of working in-house for a few startups. It's demanding, but also very fulfilling and rewarding. I've been making much more art and enjoying the process immensely. Your support directly helps me with my quest to make good art without the existential stress that plagues the region where I live, hell, it plagues us all. Your Patreon pledges go directly into my life expenses(rent and bills), better equipment to improve my workflow, tools and software. In the end, some of it will be returned to you via free prints, discounts for prints, giveaways, gifts etc.

What is Patreon?
Patreon is a website that allows fans of creators to directly support their favorite creators by recurring donations. In my case, you sign up for a monthly donation, and in turn, in the beginning of next month you get the current month's rewards in several forms. Rewards are sent after all pledges get processed and I get organized. Mostly in the first 10-12 days of the month, sometimes earlier, sometimes later.

What do I get?
My rewards are plenty and not fixed, they are always growing, expanding as I am finding ways to include and attract more people. At smaller tiers you will get bigger versions of my images without Patreon watermarks, that you can't find online, wallpapers and samples of my photo packs. You will get access to all things behind the scenes, alpha versions of any products that I am making. Also, for higher tier levels I will be giving you physical prints in several dimensions, art card nad postcard. If you are into making digital art, you will get a selection of my source files of the month, scaled down a little bit, to get some insight on how I go about doing things. At $25 and up you will get nice big prints!

All first time patrons additionaly get a free Tier reward from the previous month as a bonus! Also, from time to time I give patrons bonus files, thigns that were not in specific Tiers packs, etc.

I give you my sincerest thank you for your support!
