❗Important Announcement! June Pause - Stay pledged and get June for free (Patreon)
Content
Hi hi my dears!🥀
After some thought and a lot of stress, I've decided to pause billing for June! Please be sure to read the points below so that you know what that means for you and your goodies!
What does this mean for you and your rewards?
You will not be charged between June 1st and June 30th (yay! free month!)
If you remain pledged you will keep access to all of the content here on patreon for the month of June free of charge! 🎉
New signups for the month of June will be CLOSED. That means if you cancel your pledge this month or in June, you won't be able to sign up for the free access. 💔
There won't be a new tutorial next month since billing will be paused (But you still have access to our 60+ tutorial library!)📚🖌️
There may be less personal artworks posted here in June, but Art Pack 82 will have all the artwork from May AND June.🎨
Art Pack 82 Rewards Summary will be posted at the end of June instead of May 📆
Art Pack 82 Downloads&Codes will be posted July 2nd instead of June 2nd.📆
It's a great chance for you to catch up on past tutorials and the hundreds and hundreds of artwork rewards that we already have here on patreon!🤓🖌️
For Print, Sticker, Spicy, and Collectors
May envelopes will still be sent out on June 1st (since they were May rewards)💌🌼
There won't be any June envelopes sent out on July 1st (since no one will be charged any moneys in June). 🙅
The next envelopes to be sent out will be July's envelopes and they will be sent out August 1st!📆💌
The June Sticker Poll that was posted a few days ago will apply to July instead of June! 📆
The print poll will go up later next month since it will also apply to July instead of June.📆
For Annual Patrons
Your annual membership will extend by 1 month free of charge! Yay!🎉
What's going on? Why the Pause?
It super pains me to put a pause here on patreon because TBH, you guys are my rock. You are what keep me going through this whole crazy art journey and making art and tutorials for patreon is what I enjoy the most.
Unfortunately, I was overly optimistic about everything that I could accomplish. I took on a few too many projects, deadlines are creeping up and I'm a bit burnt out.
On top of a few too many normal-sized client projects that I committed myself to, I have a couple of larger projects with a publisher that have ballooned to be even bigger than I anticipated. (these projects are making me heavily consider adjusting my pricing and my contracts for the future! lol)
Then of course there is the 2nd How to Draw RPG Characters book that I'm in the last stretches of working on before entering editing hell.
Anyway, I can only blame myself for thinking I can do it all, and it has been a big lesson in how much I'm capable of taking on! For the future, I'm going to be much more careful about what projects I take on and how many.
All of the tutorials and goodies here also take lots of time to create, and even though I enjoy patreon content the most, I need to hunker down and get these other projects checked off of my list or at least get ahead on progress in June. Wish me luck with that!
My plan once most of these are off my plate is to come back to patreon art and rewards stronger than ever and hopefully with more time to really give this place even more love and attention! I'm really excited to dedicate myself to things like the Tarot series and more Mythology couples.
If you made it through my long winded explanation, thank you! You are a rock star.
And thank you guys so much for being here, supporting what I do, and sticking with me! I always say it at the end of tutorials because it is true: Your support is what makes the art, tutorials, and videos here possible! So thank you! 💗💗💗
📨If you have any questions about the pause or anything else, please feel free to DM me here on patreon! You can also comment your questions here if you'd like.
I'll still be checking messages and emails and everything! 📨
Lots of love!
Chrissa XOXOXO
