Addressing Issues
🕑 Added 2022-03-31 20:07:48 +0000 UTCSo for the past few months, a few kind people have informed me that the exclusive artwork I've made have been leaked and posted in public domains multiple times.
Look, I get it. Paywalls suck. "Art should be enjoyed by everyone" or whatever, but leaking and posting exclusive content will hurt an artist's livelihood because it will make people less inclined to support them financially.
Now this is what I don't get... I already post uncensored and uncropped images of my work publicly on Twitter so the general public isn't left out. I also have my page set up as an art archive, so nothing is time-exclusive and people can pledge on-and-off and still access everything. This should give people less reason to leak my exclusive work, but here we are.
Anyway, I've dealt with it on some areas but there's some I can't do anything about which is unfortunate. I will also write down a Terms and Condition about this just in case, for legal reasons. If I ever find this happening again, I will change how I'll be sharing exclusive artworks which will be inconvenient to me and everyone, or just quit to not deal with the hassle. Thanks leakers!
-----------------------------------------------
Another issue. While this hasn't happened to me but just in case it does... I do my own pace when it comes to artworks for each month. Please don't criticize me if I don't provide as much quantity as other artists. I would love to draw more for y'all but this is not my main thing.
If you are pledged for transactional reasons (You pay me, You get art) instead of pledging because you support me and my work, then I advise you to end your pledge, or pledge when an artwork you like is available for you, then end your pledge.
Also to clarify, I do try to create at least two artworks each month. If I don't end up drawing anything then I will pause payments for current patrons on the 1st of the next month because I don't want people paying me when I'm not posting any content.
Anyway that's all for now. Thank you to anyone who took the time to read. I love y'all and thank you very much for supporting me. It means a lot. ❤️🧡💛

My support is for you first and the artwork second. For the prices you offer, I'm surprised people are leaking your art out. :\
