Friends, my high school teaching job has ended with this school year. The upshot of this is, I'm back to being a full-time artist and photographer and that means I have time to do this Patreon (and Etsy and YouTube) right again.
That means,
$40+ patrons will be receiving physical zines again, along with 3 instant film prints, each month, if they give their addresses.
$20 patrons will be getting instant film prints in the mail, again presuming I have their addresses.
I moved to Los Angeles before I had my teaching job, and I was so grateful that I got this gig. It was proof positive that if I took a leap of faith, something good would happen. I was on the path to be a high school photo teacher since 2008, but in Arizona I never was able to get a full-time teaching gig even though I jumped through every hoop- there just wasn't enough jobs to go around.
Now that I've done it, I realize my path is always going to be an indie artist, primarily a photographer. Teaching set me up in California and gave me time to get these engines kick started and with June 2023, there's no going back.
