I was about to leave my craft three years ago, but I decided to give Patreon a try before looking for a different job. The support and engagement of a few but very generous and incredible people kept me drawing even if the money wasn’t enough. Last month I won one of the most important comics prizes in Spain, with a project that I could do only thanks to them, and I used my minute on TV to dedicate the prize to my patrons and thank them again! You can see the moment at this subtitled video: https://youtu.be/tWgXSog2eS4

A bit about this:
The system for creative people is broken. Let’s cut the bullshit and put #CreativityOverEverything.
The world needs creators, especially in tough times. We turn to you for joy, distraction, hope, and understanding. Your work is important, and we owe so much to you.
That’s why we’re tired of seeing creators getting screwed by a broken system that doesn’t value their work. And current events are making it painfully clear. While the internet has offered massive opportunities for creators of all kinds, the rules of the attention economy are serving advertisers first and leaving artists with less. Less financial stability, less creative control and less ability to connect with their own fans.
Our community wants to change that, and that starts with telling our story. We hope it resonates with you and inspires you to share https://bit.ly/33EMWql.
