Ko-fi: A "Coffee" to Sponsor Art Time by Amber-Aria

http://ko-fi.com/sunsetaria

Yes, I got a Ko-fi, with a bit of a twist! Tips given will go towards sponsoring art time that I can use for myself, and I'll share the results in my Ko-fi gallery and in my various social media outlets like here, Tumblr, Twitter, and FurAffinity. For every collective $20 raised, I'll take one hour to work on my own stuff, be it fanart or original work, and share the results. I’ve debated how to try this for a while, but I figure it doesn’t hurt to have a way for people to contribute in small ways, in exchange for getting to see more work from me.

Why have I decided to try this? About two years ago, I attempted to use Patreon to help fund more of my own original art time, and while I had a wonderful handful of supporters willing to give money for that project, I decided to shut it down after a couple of months of struggling to keep up with individual rewards while also creating timely content. It ended up becoming less of a way for me to share my original art, and more of an alternate way to get commissions from me, which is what I was trying to avoid. This way, I figure every little bit accumulated helps to contribute to the same goal, and everyone can enjoy the results from every milestone. And there's no worry about having to contribute every week or month or post. If you wanted to drop a single tip and never do it again, that's perfectly acceptable. c:

If anything, setting up this account also works as a reminder to myself to draw more of my own work outside of commissions to share, tips or no. It’s too easy to forget to draw for my own benefit when I’m trying to crank out commissions as fast as possible to make rent and save up for other things in my life.
