November 2023 Patreon Sketches
Monday, March 18th, 2024
We’re catching up! Since patron sketches get done the month after requests, December’s the last of this batch (though January will be ready before these are all posted, lol).
As requested! 😻 There’s two sets, watercolor & ink/marker, so please enjoy both.
- Jo asked for “something banishing winter gloom with light”
- Jeff asked for “time shift” and this winter winds blowing the autumn away is the second try (sold)
- Rebecca W asked for “giant Lapis tiny Lenin” since it often looks that way in pics
- Rebecca S asked for honeybees! (sold)
- This was the first try at “time shift” for Jeff, but somehow the ‘Murica overwhelmed the Doppler reference.
- Next comes my wee monster Andy and “ew mouthpets!” for SaraBeth (sold)
- Eric wanted “Loth cat Ezra” and got Ezra as a Loth cat, because why not? (sold)
- Corinne asked, “Is Mikey CAKE?”
- And finally, Amy B asked for a Christmas vampire and got this charming, trustworthy fellow (sold)

May 2022 Patreon sketches
Tuesday, March 28th, 2023
More sketches! A lot of these get sent to patrons for my quarterly packets, so they vanish into the mist never to be seen again. I’m pretty sure these have all been sent off to new adventures!
The right column is all filler cats, because I felt like continuing with some no-line, super sketchy cats after I finished the patron sketches. We have Raccoon, Pod, and Mal from top to bottom.
The left column, top down, is for patrons! Who all asked for machines, so I decided to break out the markers and have some sketchy no-line fun.
- Rebecca S asked for trains and got this VROoooM train
- Eric wanted Giant Robots and got the most ridiculous kitty kaiju training bot. He knows why. (sold)
- Jefferson prompted “vacuum cleaner” and got a tumblr meme he won’t even know (sorry), Stabby the Roomba. (sold)

April 2022 Patreon sketches
Thursday, March 23rd, 2023
Guess who’s been doing sketches on Patreon for months and not posting them to the blog? It’s me! I’ll be getting the last many months of them out on the blog over the next few weeks, so please enjoy the ridiculousness.
- This one wasn’t a prompt, I just wanted to draw trees and birbs on this orange sunset
- Jeff asked for ‘distracted’
- Another non-prompt experiment with salt and watercolor on yupo that got some marker topography
- And ‘rose candy’ for Eric
These have all found a new home, but some of the later ones are still available for the discerning collector. You can also make an account and follow me on Patreon for free, where these are always posted publicly, or Instagram or Twitter, where I post some things as the mood strikes me.
