Helping out is never expected or required...but, always appreciated. If you feel inspired, here are a few ways you can support the stream.
All tips, donations, and subscriptions (regardless of the amount), go directly towards our monthly expenses (food, mortgage, etc.) and to purchase art supplies and tech to keep the live stream going.
Note: If you are unable to Donate via PayPal, then please feel free to donate via Twitch by purchasing and gifting Bits during my stream. For example, 100 bits = $1.00 U.S. dollar. Also, 100% of Bit donations go directly to me. Thanks!
I now have an Etsy shop where I offer my original painting, as well as affordable digital downloads of my original work. Digital downloads can be printed on your favorite mediums, such as paper, canvas, mouse pads, etc.
Thanks to everyone for your generous support (emotional and/or monetary), I really appreciate it!
I'm going to be a bit looser with my painting schedule while I work on photographing and printing my original paintings. Be sure to "Follow" to be notified when I'm going live. Once I have my prints worked out, I will likely fall into a regular schedule again. Thank you for your patience!
I have an alternate channel (PaintHappyFun) in which I stream non-art activities, such as VR, PC and Switch games, walks through nature, and just chatting. Feel free to join in if I'm gaming or just hang out and chat.
Join me on Discord (a free text chat app that works on both your desktop and phone) to be notified if I need to change my schedule, or for updates on works in progress, etc. Also, feel free to share artwork you've made, pics of your pets, etc. (just keep it clean). Thanks for sharing and I'll see you on Discord!
A big thank you to my five awesome mods: BeadHappy, LoveAuggie, VideoKid, RonaldPMaxwell and IsaisChannel (pronounced ee-sigh-ee')!

My daughter and moderator, BeadHappy (Cara) designs jewelry, then writes and photographs detailed, step-by-step beading tutorials to teach others how to make each design. Several years ago, I joined her in this business, and we loved designing and working together. Feel free to check out her shop to see our creative work with beads.
