BIG POST: NEW ANIMATION + Sketches + A Patreon Update of sorts!!

Hello, wonderful friends! Happy Friday! I've got lots of little things to share today, so I'm just going to jump right in!

Above, you'll find my new sun and moon animation! I wanted it to be a bit of a final animation to accompany two I had done early this year. They're together again, taking a moment to breathe in and out, to appreciate nature and things (it's a little deeper than that, but I'll spare you the sappiness hehe).

(It is, in fact, the postcard of the month, btw! Stickers are still being designed as this new sun and moon doodle took much longer than I thought it would, so I'll let ya know what those will be super soon- I definitely want one to be a mountain goat, though 🐐!!)

Let's look at some sketches I put together this week!

?? I don't know where this little guy came from, but he brought me a bit of joy, so I think he's gotta become something? A sticker? Something?

THEN!

I've been wanting to dive into the world of fantasy and softness and castles and dragons and things, so I played around with this little idea! I keep starting illustrations in this realm and then I NEVER finish them, so maybe this will be a new place to start.

I may or may not have gotten a bit lost in this magical space and did a bigger spread of mystical pals-

I'm not exactly sure how, but I might try to combine all of these ideas into one, BIG magical drawing.. hmm, we will see!

FROM THERE! You may have noticed, if you've booped around my page at all that I've gone through and revamped a bit! And, well, I had to start with a new profile pic as I just wasn't feeling the last one-

the s k e t c h -

of course, it had to be something a little witchy, a little fall still! As I said, fall is still here, in my brain!

the f i n a l-

my comfort colors!!

I also uploaded new membership photos and things too, just for a bit of an update as my style has shifted/as a fun way to close out the year 🌱

AND, it's official, the Alice in Wonderland-inspired drawing has commenced!

 This is going to take.. a big long time, but Alice has been lined! Onto the rabbit 🐇!! (I absolutely cannot wait to spend all day on this! Yes!)

!!!NOW, some important news!!!

You may have seen the updates if you follow along with other creators on the platform, but Patreon has updated their subscription billing system. (NOTE: This does not affect existing subscribers! It only affects NEW/FUTURE subscribers!!) 

How will these updates affect you/your rewards etc.? 

Generally, nothing about your experience here on Patreon will change. The only slightly noticeable switch will be for members who receive physical rewards. To accommodate this new system, I will, most likely, have to start sending out rewards during the first week of the following month rather than the last week of each month as I've done for many years. For example, I shipped October's rewards during the last week of October. Though, with this new system, November's rewards will be shipped during the first week of December, December's rewards during the first week of January and so on. This will simply shift the day you receive physical rewards by a few days, so it should not by super noticeable, if at all!

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask! I wanted to touch upon this just to address the slight shift in the reward shipment schedule. Other than that, that's all you should notice! Thanks so much for your understanding! 😊

Alright, friends! I'm off to draw all sorts of things Alice in Wonderland! I hope you all have a warm and cozy weekend! It's starting to get very, very chilly here, so it's time for big sweaters and lots of tea!

A always, here's your daily dose of Mr. Mushroom!
