the self conscious reluctance to hype or even mention my patreon because the whole point of the platform is to give creators money and it feels impertinent to imply that what I do is worth money VERSUS the fact that you can follow creators on patreon for free and get email notifications for their public posts and at the end of the day what I want the most is just for people to actually see the art I share

#'oh don't make art for validation! do it for yourself!!' NEAT but it still feels bad to say 'I made this!' and get crickets in response lmao #me on facebook and twitter where my irl family and friends are but the algorithms eat everything if you're not on the grind 24/7:#'hey guys did you know... you can follow my patreon for free... you don't actually have to give me money you can get finished art for free'#irl family and friends: nuh uh sister you're not getting me to no secondary location #I NEED TO BE CLEAR that like 80% of my patrons ARE irl family and friends and I'm exceedingly grateful!!#obviously 'please look at my art AND give me a dollar' is objectively better than just 'please look at my art' and I love everyone who does #but like... even if you don't have an extra dollar......... please look at my art maybe #tumblr is the only bitch I respect tbh posting art to facebook and twitter feels increasingly like a waste of effort #but it would also feel weird and bad not to #ANYWAY [BLOWS KISSES TO MY PATRONS FOREVER] I LOVE YOU SO MUCH THANK YOU FOR LIKIN MY ART!!#.... did I make this post instead of collecting sketches for the patron exclusive posts I've been meaning to put together. perhaps.#been doodling nyssa again but I feel like I wanna have a couple more doodles before I put together a whole post 🤔#about me #my art
