(patron-only post!)

hello beautiful people.....!!!


oh my dear god, the reponse to Machete has already been so overwhelmingly amazing. thank you, thank you...thank you. 


i'm totally floored by this: as i was writing this post, rolling stone just picked up the song and put it up on their site. we the the media infuckigdeed:

keep it going, people! this is amazing. if you have any music writer friends online, or at college radio, or at the BBC, or at triple J - send it. tweet friends. get the word out. word of mouth is a powerful thing when the music is quality. 


AND!


as promised, here is a patron-only link (please be discreet and don't share this on social media) for a beautiful, limited edition woven linen paper print of allan amato's beautiful photograph, taken about a week after the song was recorded, at around 7 am, on hermosa beach in los angeles (with a crowd-sourced machete, thanks erin routson).


there will be 1,000 posters and that's IT...and 200 of them will be hand numbered and signed. i'll probably sign them in silver, down by the foot.


here's the link:

we'll see if these sell out off the bat, but i won't share the link to the public until i'm certain that everyone here on patreon who wanted one of these babies got one.


love,

AFP

Hello Amanda, I wanted to tell you something I feel in regards to the emails that you send out regularly. First things first though: I'm Aga. I have been following you since 2007 and now I'm one of your patrons. The funny thing is that I've been reading all available Neil Gaiman books since 2003 when Coraline made it to the local market. I took your relationship almost as a personal success (; About the emails: I support you because I would like to see more of your art and I love the lifestyle you so bravely pioneered and affirmed. It really is the case that supporting you is like supporting a dream of an secure and productive artist who is working to make available art. That's its greatest success - that the pieces can be reached easily and you sill can make a living without supporting the overpriced 'gallery art' market or similar. However, the manner in which your emails keep restating the divisions among the patrons, fans, lovers and supporters to those more entitled and those less so is somehow destroying the dream you seemed to fight for in the first place. Maybe it wasn't your dream, but even if it was only mine I would like to explain... It was about being able to pay an artist whom you delight in and use the amount that you can afford. Not being categorised and valued by the 'price range' is important here because, in my view of patreon, we aren't really buying anything specific (like emails which have an air of a commercial newsletter) we just want to help you: have your creative freedom, live your life, trust your thoughts and don't waste time on writing to 7000 people who would anyways crave something different like either much more personal contact or simply Amanda-songs. I might be going about this wrong, but I wanted to say that I'd rather have access to your music only than see our exchange turn into PR. Love and really love, Aga

I decided I needed this photo to put up as a reminder to aspire to be so damn fearless in both art and life. Thank you.

I've been meaning to sign up to pateron for ages. Finally this post and this image gave me the push! I had to have it. When it came though on my email i thought immediately 'this needs to be a print'. Now a proud patron for good x

Chris Miller

I wanted a signed one soooo bad! But I missed it! I need to check my email faster lol

Came to comment on the Machete post, left with a confirmation email for a poster. I wasn't going to go for it, but damn, the song and the image are so good- I love seeing the cross-discipliney stuff, especially when it rocks SO MUCH. I don't talk on here much, but thanks for rocking and loving.

Does anyone else feel like this poster was printed badly on low quality paper. For a lot less than it cost, I could have printed out a downloaded JPG file of the image. I love supporting AFP through Patreon, but I feel like after she took a lot of money for an image that looked amazing digitally and knowingly (she signed a bunch of them) sent this extremely low quality print to people that support her... I think that sends a message to us to stop blindly supporting her. She really really hurt my trust with the quality of the product

I agree - the print showed up at my place tod and it looks... not good. The colour looks washed out, the image isn't sharp, and yup, it looks like a cheap print out.

Kitty Friedricks

Yeah so: I've framed it and I'm not happy. But it's signed (yay?) So I may end up trying to get a high quality copy of the file and have a local printer do it to the same size so I can get a bit more of an idea what went wrong. The original spec said linen paper. Does that material make photos look ill defined and washed out? It just feels like normal printer paper to me : not like a premium paper.
