Bear Fright

Don't you hate it when your cuddly things come to life totally unexpected?
I realise this leans towards those weird comedy movies "Ted" and "Ted2" but big teddybears have that effect nowadays :) I initially thought of her boyfriend standing behind the door with a remote control but this is probably just a bit more weird, which is not at all a bad thing :)

An update on sales tax

Hi everyone,

I wanted to give you an update on some changes that we’ll be seeing 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. 

Less than half of all patrons will be charged sales tax, and for most, the amount will be very small. For example, sales tax rates in the US range from 4% to 11%, so on a $5 pledge, that would...

Distant Painting (XL)

Well, as there is a Tierless Patron now, which I didn't think was an option, I have to change the way I post again. Although I appreciate all the support I get, there's a reason for Tiers and it wouldn't be fair to Tiers to not act on it.

There are spots (this happens to be on Selfie Street) where social distancing does not interfere with creative expression. This is one of them. And when the paintress across that alley is done with her work, roles will be swapped because they can actua...

Morning Selfie (XL)

Well, before getting to all those daily chores waiting for you, don't forget your morning coffee and your daily selfie for your gallery. Of course the latter should show nothing that could be misunderstood by your followers.

It does get a bit confusing now and again, with posting all these versions. I accidentally posted the XL nude for all patrons initially, yet very briefly. It was up only a few minutes though. Accidents happen, even in art :)  

The one with panties is just...

Museum Selfie (XL)

Don't click on the small one if you're uncomfortable with the big one already

Some dare. Some don't.
The Museum is located on Selfie Street. 

In the Hazardous Selfie series, which might well be a sign of the times.

Archives Deleted

I have deleted all Patron posts up to the last post of March, today. The public posts remain, although I accidentally deleted some, in the automatism of procedures like that.  I will make various bonus packages of deleted posts for loyal higher Tiers, but that may take more time than deleting, which proved to be quite the time consuming challenge itself. 

I'm not sure what the packages will contain just yet but there will be one for Barebella and the Paparazzi comic, separate ...

SprayPaint (XL)

See? One picture leads to another (and another and another)  Impossible to control if I'd want to. I don't want to. I just want to see what can be painted and how. So, I soldier on. I hope you don't mind :D

I had this posted as a prerelease for Patrons initially, to become public in 3 days, but as there may be too much sideboob visible I better make that Patrons only. Even though even the most prudish social media are only panicking about nipples and cracks, Patreon is strict...

Casual Friday (XL)

You can imagine the shock of practically all the employees when the floor manager showed up in her favourite leisure getup. Not that they had not suspected anything. She always had been pretty strict.  

Actually, this started as an attempt to do this perspective, but there aren't that much situations where it would work as well as I would like. I like to have a story in the picture, so I thought of this. However, I started a new painting already with a similar point of view that do...

Barebella Page 10

This is a comic I am painting a page for every month. There’s only a rough storyline, that I won’t disclose, to have some guidance, but I try to spontaneously go with the flow otherwise. 

It isn’t yet perfect. I paint quickly to not lose momentum and will clean it up when it’s done. I’m not sure how many pages it will be but I’m aiming for a basic 44.

That means it might get a follow up. Or not if I can’t get it printed. It’s very loosely based on...

Stupid Questions (XL)

There are no stupid questions but of course some answers are clear when you take a good look around.

Just something that randomly crossed my mind. I'll not tell her it's not plugged in yet, after moving it to a better spot, because it would be over too soon, wouldn't it? I'll just look puzzled and at the scene and enjoy it, while recording it for later :)

Jane Badone (XL)

I don't know how this emerged. I was just playing around. A word of advice though; Don't try this at home because Bongo might rip your arm off, even when he'd just be playing around too.
This gentle giant doesn't really know his strength.
Had to add some fog and the title to refer a little bit to Gorilla's in the Mist but it was more about making a picture about hazardous selfies, like the one on the skyscraper construction site. 

Where are her shorts? No idea :)

Lady Godiva (XL)

Now that's how she would ride into town, wouldn't she? That's her being true to herself. The sheer cloth only to prevent chafing, because who would want that? Seriously! :)

No Lady Godiva

Because, why would a brave lady put anything on? It's the mainstream social media. They've put the fear of deletion or block into her. So, she can only be herself behind the shroud of hypocrisy the social media have bestowed upon us. Sad times.  

I thought it was time to paint a horse again. And so I did. :D

Teacher 4 (XL)

She's back from her vacation in Las Vegas and what happens in Vegas....

Anyway. With and without text for a change. Looks better on the wall without, if you'd want to  print it to remind you of your days in school :D That I prefer the Patron version may only be my own preferences talking. 

This will be the last Teacher I'll paint in a while probably. Unless....
