🌻 Hello July 🌻 Updates & Exciting new things!

Hello Patrons! 🌻💛

First I wanted to say thank you all so much for supporting my work!

One of my lifelong goals which seemed like a dream now became a reality. It took me a while to achieve this but now I am extremely happy to say I’ve achieved the goal of becoming an independent/self-employed artist. 🎉🎉 I recently left my job to pursue my dreams as an independent artist and I couldn’t be more grateful for all the support you’ve given me on Patreon and my shop! Because of that, I’m able to take on less client work and be able to produce and make more content! 😭💖

I’ve been brainstorming ideas on how I wanted to add printables or produce exclusive wallpapers here! These are all ideas for now so I would most likely ask you what you’d like to see in the future! 🥰

But for now, I just want to say thank you again so much, I don’t think I can truly express how thankful I am!!! 😭😭💕

Now, this month is also the big shop update!! I’m getting in touch with a few companies to outsource my printing. Before this, I handle most of my printing for all my shop updates but because of Mermay and the new art, I think it would be best if I had some help so I had to reach out to other companies to see different samples! Most of the stuff should be on its way soon!

I recently created and ordered a stamp design to use for all mail rewards! ✉️✉️

I wanted to test it out on some envelopes and I'm so happy with how they turned out! Expect to see these designs stamped on your mail rewards soon! 🥰

With that said, I wanted to update my profile picture and business card so I coloured it and made updates to the design! I based the design to somewhat look like me since the old profile picture doesn’t really look like me anymore haha! 😅

I’ve attached the time-lapse video of how I coloured it on Procreate!

The colouring took 1h 44 min! Then I made the alignments and final adjustments in Photoshop which took another 15-20 min!

Changes to the Patreon FAQ 📝

I’ve recently changed my Patreon payment to charge upfront, this doesn’t affect current patrons (you!) but I just wanted to let you know! I’ve attached all the info here so you can read more about it!

Postcards and prints are expected to arrive tomorrow, so I hope there aren’t any delays like last time! I will keep you posted once I've shipped the rewards!

Edit // 07/06 - All rewards have been shipped! 💕

Thank you so much for your support!! 💛

Love,

Maxine
