I need your questions! (One Year Patreon Anniversary)

Note : The poll says 1, 3 and 4 because I'm an idiot, and Patreon won't let me change the numbers now. Thanks for correcting me Alexandra!

Hi lovely people,

So I realised recently that last month was my One Year Anniversary on Patreon!

In the year, I have gone from earning almost nothing, to covering almost all of my rent, just with Patreon! And that is obviously thanks to all of you!

I pondered for a while what would be a fitting rewards, and although my instinct would be to send everyone a little something, I simply can't afford that unfortunately, so I thought the next best thing could be a high-res digital download of a piece I would paint in an exclusive Patreon video, in which I could also answer any of your questions! A sort of Q&A/painting vid, if you will.
I thought of maybe doing a livestream, but I don't think I could coordinate the time so that it would fit everyone's schedule, so is a video ok with everyone?

Does this sound good to all of you?

So basically, what I need to do this, is :

✦ 1- For you to choose which piece I should paint in that video (Poll below)

✦ 2- Whether you would like the video to be real-time, or sped-up (if the painting process is crazy long, but you would still like it to be real-time, I could edit it a little to cut out the most boring painting parts, similar to how I edited "Wanning" on Youtube)

✦ 3- Your questions! :)

⇩⇩ Below is your choice for the design I would paint in the video. ⇩⇩

I decided on a hand painting, as I haven't done one of those in a while and I have a bunch of ideas, they don't take me too long to do (so I could potentially make the video real-time), and I did say I would make a new hand series almost a year ago and never got round to it, so I thought this might be an appropriate one year anniversary thing, haha. XD
Some of you may recognise designs 2 and 3 as part of the drawings I submitted to you all as potential future paintings in a poll last year. They were two of the most popular designs.

If the painting works out and you all like it, I might see if the design would work well as a pin!
And it will also become the next sticker.

OH! And why not kill two birds with one stone : I will also be doing a giveaway of the original to one lucky patron! No extra step needed for that, you are all automatically entered in that giveaway :)

TL;DR

I will be doing a Q&A video to celebrate my 1 Year on Patreon Anniversary, in which I will paint a piece, that I will then offer to all of you as a High-Res download. I will also be giving away the original to one of you.

You can vote for the design I will be painting in the poll below, and please also ask me questions you would like me to answer in the Q&A.

Poll Rules :

- Only one vote per person.

- Poll will end on the 18th of April, at 12pm BST (one week from now).

PS : I am not sure when I'll be releasing the video but I'll do my best to do so before May.
Also, the design won't be exclusive to Patreon, I will be making prints available to the public, as well as any overflow of pins (if I make pins) or stickers (if I make stickers). But only patrons will have access to the high-res download, and patrons with physical rewards will automatically get a pin or sticker in their rewards if I make them. I might do an exclusive design in the future, but for now, I can't afford to do so, I hope that's ok with everyone!

That's all for now!
I look forward to reading your questions,
I hope you are all well,
All my love,
M
