All Patrons: Please Read
To my fans, fellow artists, and friends. First, I want to thank everyone for supporting my art and comics. You have my gratitude, whether you have been a patron for three months or three years. When I began making digital art, it was, frankly, pretty awful. However, your positive feedback and encouragement helped me improve. In recent years, I have created some images and comics that I am genuinely proud of, and I am happy to know that so many people enjoy my art.
A big change is taking place in my life. I am about to propose to my girlfriend, the only woman I have ever loved, the woman with whom I want to spend my life. I love her more than anything, including the characters I draw.
Marriage is a major lifestyle change that causes priorities to shift. My girlfriend does not know about my art, and due to the nature of my art, I will never share it with her. This means I cannot pull out my tablet and draw whenever I like, and I cannot leave images sitting in a folder on my laptop. This means I will no longer be creating art and comics regularly. I may still draw from time to time, but I cannot commit to posting every week or even every month. I know many of you would still pledge in spite of that, but marriage will also change my financial situation. Because my future wife and I will be managing our finances together and filing taxes together, I cannot allow an extra bit of income to just appear in my bank account every month without explanation.
This was a difficult decision to make, but I have thought about it for a very long time, and given all the facts that I have listed, it is the only practical and prudent decision I can make.
I will be shutting down my Patreon on September 30, 2021.
I am not deleting my Deviant Art page. I have cleaned up my gallery a bit, and what is there will remain there. I want my existing art to stay accessible. I want people to enjoy it, and I want to inspire other artists with similar interests. I may draw and post things on DA occasionally. That is something I am still wrestling with. Later this month, I will compile a list of some up-and-coming weight gain artists. Please consider redirecting your pledge to one of them, and help them carry on my legacy. I only ever made a few exclusive images. My page will remain up until September 30 if you wish to download them, but please do not post them to other social media sites.
This is a personal choice that I have made for myself. It is not something I do out of a sense of guilt or obligation. I am doing this because I love my girlfriend, and it is time for me to start a new chapter in my life. I hope that you will all understand and respect my decision.
As always, thank you for being a fan.
