It's October in only a couple days, so this is your final reminder to switch to a new tier if you haven't already! I really appreciate you all and want to make sure you don't miss taking action before the new tiers go live and the old ones cease fulfillment. Thanks so much to everyone who has already taken care of this for bearing with me, too! If you still need to switch and want a reminder of...

Hi everyone!! It's time for some much-awaited news on the future of this campaign! Can you believe I've been on Patreon for seven and a half years - since early 2016? Some of you have found me relatively recently, while others have been part of this journey since just about the very beginning. Every bit of support has been very meaningful, and I hope you have overall been happy with the type of...

I've been debating with myself for months about whether to write this post. I don't have to, I know. I don't owe the internet my life story. But I've thought about it enough to know that I want to talk about what's been going on - why I've been quieter in recent times, not made as many new original pieces or designs as I once did, not able to complete as many commissions as quickly as ...

One of my first merch adventures & an item that has probably remained among the most in demand from me is the bugdanas. I made my first tiny batch in 2014 and expanded over the years into many new designs and colors. I love making them and seeing how folks use them both as practical and decorative objects!
However, during the course of the pandemic, I wasn't able to restock &...

Just a little heads-up - after a very long time reflecting on my identity and presentation as a creator and a person, I've decided going forward that all my art and efforts will be rolled together under the Moth Monarch name.

Hello patrons!
I wanted to pass along some information from Patreon which may affect some of your pledges. Due to new laws passing in several countries and US states, Patreon will be required to start charging sales tax on some pledges starting July 1st. The information Patreon is providing me indicates that fewer than half of all patrons site-wide will be char...

This piece took me roughly 3 days. I really needed to draw something from deep within myself, not directed by or intended for anyone else. I hope to do it more often again, honestly; it's part of why I started doing Patreon in the first place, though the ever-changes tides of life and finances sometimes keep me mostly on the commission beat. I hope to keep making things only I can make that oth...
