Old art drop! (Happy ten years of Patreon!)
🕑 Added 2025-04-13 14:12:06 +0000 UTCWhooo-hoo! Ten years ago, I launched my Patreon as an attempt to free up my time for more of the stuff I love to draw. A whole bunch of people (a lot of them still here, bless you!) signed up and have been with me on this journey all these years, others of you have joined the ride over time.
With the arrival of my eye condition, it's become more important to me than ever, so I have a lot to be grateful for, for you to have stuck with me through it all, despite the wild ride it's been sometimes.
To celebrate, I've had an idea that is properly reminis...citive: Bringing back some of my old art created before Patreon, all arranged by time and subject matter and easy to find! For that, these collections will be uploaded here in my Patreon shop, but will be available to most of you for free.
You probably know I've purged all my older art quite completely off the net. That was never a conscious decision; it was first sites that just died the death (Elfwood, Epilogue), then those that were just accumulating spam and hateful comments (deviantArt, Facebook) or that scraped art for AI slop, or at least did nothing to stop it (Twitter, Wordpress).
Here is the first: the classic old "Fields of Gold" era of my Silmarillion art, then posted both to deviantArt and Elfwood, way back in 2003/4!

All patrons of Squirrel (3€) and over get free access to this collection, as well as to all the ones I will yet post.
Other collections of older art I'm planning:
Rhyddion Chronicles art (2001-10)
Harry Potter (msinly 2004)
Dark Elves/Drizzt (mainly 2002)
A Song of Ice and Fire (mainly 2003)
At least two or three more batches of Tolkien art - 2011-ish, then the big batch of 2012 (Oath of Feanor and Ossiriand-era), then the years of 2013-15
Heroes? Does anyone remember that TV show? I was such a Peter Petrelli fangirl.
Hannibal art (2013-2014)
Star Wars (2016f. That is here already, but back before you could properly organise your stuff in collections.)
Let me know which ones you'd like to see most! Also, whether I've forgotten some. I probably have. =)

Congrats! 🎉

Thank you for keeping on keeping on! And for keeping this place available and alive. I'm glad I can support you, and still see your old art. Also yes, pages have... disappeared, gone bad, and it's a bit of a paradigm shift again, without clear directions. Glad to have some of your prints, and to see some of your art here <3
