Are your commissions open and if so, where can I find commission info? <3

Hi! They aren't currently but I promise I'll be annoying about it once they are! :D

to the previous anon: nobody, especially not that first anon, is asking her to create something she doesn't want to. but transparency and honesty is necessary when you are running a subscription service. when you make promises and repeatedly break them, paying patrons have a right to feel annoyed. all anyone wants is clarity.

(It was nice of them to defend me but I agree, I’ll do better 👉🏻👉🏻)

((ALSO, off topic but I use they/them pronouns!))

These patron anons are sounding mighty entitled. It’s one thing to be upset when something you like, especially if you paid for it, doesn’t get completed as fast as you’d like, but they also have to remember you’re a human being with a life and interests and a need to Enjoy what you’re creating.

If we all just smashed out art we hated cause it pleased other people, we’d be miserable.

That’s very sweet of you thanks 🥹💕 I won’t force myself to draw things I don’t like but I want to deliver on what I promised, especially because I got paid for it 😤 I just gotta be more transparent about my plans in the future but that won’t stop me from drawing what my heart desires! ✨

I'm not interested in jjk and I appreciate that previous person's ask, as well as your answer. I agree with all their points. I've been holding on in hopes that you'll be completing the taegi mermaids comic as promised for a really long time now and not only has that not happened, the entire focus of your patreon has changed from bts to jjk. It feels a bit like I've been strung along to be quite honest. I joined your patreon when you paywalled that content specifically so I could see it and keep updated on it, and it hasn't been updated since dec 2022 and the last doodle we got related to it was august 2022. It's my favourite bts au ever, and you've promised multiple times it'll be completed, but it's been over a year and a half and i'm frustrated i'm paying a monthly subscription for something that isn't happening, and to content that has zero interest to me even if I think you're a wonderfully talented artist.

I understand and I apologise to you as well. I love that au very much and I feel super guilty for letting it drag on for so long. Doesn’t excuse it of course, I got very in my head about it and wanted it to be good which just caused me to avoid it. Considering the many frustrations both me and my patrons have had with this, I’ve decided to dedicate the entire month of (Mer)may to this au and just work through all the stuff I started and just power through the dumb anxiety about it. Jjk was the first thing since BTS that really interested me and I needed that new creative wind, but it was wrong to just toss whatever I had of them on Patreon and call it a day.

I am very sorry, you really didn’t have to stay and I took it for granted. As said in my previous answer, I’ll be making an announcement concerning future plans as soon as possible, I do take this very seriously 😤

Thank you for taking the time to write me, I really do appreciate the honest feedback!

Love, Bee 🐝 💙

For a second I didn’t realize it meant “high” as in a stoner–I thought “High Geologist” was like a rank of geologist or something and he was insulted you would challenge him to naming stones

Hi Bee! Going anon because I feel so awkward asking this and I genuinely like you and your work is beautiful ;;;;;;

Patreon subber here! I've noticed that you seem to be drawing less and less of BTS art and more of that anime show. Which is 100000% your prerogative and I fully support anyone following their own joy and especially artists creating art that interests them, not just to cater to their audience, so this is in no way me asking or requesting you to draw less anime and more BTS! However, I'm not in the greatest place financially right now and I need to be more strict with myself and where I am spending my money and to make sure where I'm spending my money also aligns with my own wants. I wish I was in a position to just remain subbed as a patron no matter what because I love your art and want to support you as an artist, and I've really been warring with myself over this for the last couple months because that truly where my values lie when I have the means. But between the topic and amount we're paying for, I'm feeling torn. I TOTALLY get the reasons for the decrease in content, your health issues and school and work are completely valid, but it doesn't change the fact that we're getting noticeably less now than we did a year ago, and you've been promising it's temporary for set periods (first school and exams last year, then work, then health), but it's held pretty steady for at least a year now and has never returned to the level many of us subbed to originally despite repeated assurances that eventually things will pick back up. Less content is honestly not a big deal in and of itself, but it doesn't sit right with me that you haven't been upfront that these changes will be permanent, always promising that the current volume is temporary. But also there's been no broaching the subject of the fandom your creating for the majority of the time now changing from what your subscribers subbed to or for. Again, I fully support you creating for whatever interests you, but when I subbed you were solely a BTS fanartist and described your patreon as such on twitter, offering early and uncensored access to NSFW art, and you've never said anything to your subscribers about your focus permanently shifting to predominantly be anime. So far in 2024, not including previews for or commissions, you've published 2 BTS art posts and 8 of the anime characters on patreon. In the position I'm in, it just doesn't make sense for me to be spending a monthly subscription fee on fan content that isn't something I follow or know anything about. So I guess what I'm asking is for confirmation that you will no longer be focusing on BTS art? Truly you are so talented, I genuinely do love your art in general, I just can't afford to spend monthly money on something that doesn't genuinely interest me, even if I wish I could stay subbed just to support an artist I admire.

Dude hey! It seems you put a lot of thought into this so I'll answer accordingly!

I know I haven't been as reliable as I wanted to be in the past few months and I apologise for that. I don't mean for this to sound like an excuse, but I did very much believe for things to be temporary. (I tremendously overexhausted myself with my degree and my health has been a bit shit since qwq) I overestimated myself and should have had more foresight and taken proper breaks with the payment cycles as well.

Now, as for the shift in fandoms, I have wanted to broaden my range of fandoms I produce art for for quite some time. I do still very much love BTS and the aus I made mean a lot to me still. But the fandom in general has sparked a lot less joy than it used to lately and I've gotten a bit bored drawing only them. BTS was already an uncommonly long obsession and while i wouldn't call it burn-out, I AM a bit singed. I haven't announced something like a permanent shift on my patreon or twitter because it isn't, I love to draw them still but my focus just isn't as singular as it was for the past few years.

I know that keeping multiple fandoms under a single hat on patreon isn't ideal, and I completely understand that patrons don't always vibe with that. So I do not take it personally AT ALL should they decide to leave. Honestly it makes me very grateful to see that this meant enough to you to contact me like this.

Jjk is currently the thing that interests me the most, but I did plan to return to the roots of doing bangtan ship polls again for next month!

You've definitely given me stuff to think about. I'll make an announcement in the next few days regarding future plans.

And finally, I'll plainly say that my focus on bts art won't return to the level of intensity it started out as for a good while. It will continue, but not as it was. As you said, it's good for an artist to draw not only for an audience and I won't ever force myself to do that either. But I should have been more transparent, maybe it really is time I overhaul my page to represent the current me.

Ok, enough serious waffling, Please Do Not Feel Bad for cancelling your subscription!! In fact I encourage it if it doesn't spark joy anymore!! Smutty patreon art is a luxury expense and shit is hard enough these days!! I pinky promise I will not be mad above some entirely impersonal mild annoyance that my monthly budget shall now encompass 3$ less :)

I hope I covered it all, if you want to ask me about anything else, feel free to dm me, I promise I won't bite. I should generally encourage more plain feedback on my page so if you have more notes, I'd love to hear them!

But for now that's all!

Love, Bee 🐝 💙

No… you don’t understand… I have legally acquired the rights to adopt this child…

(A little style experiment featuring my favorite grumpy cat XD)

…it is time to unearth my ancient Yuri on Ice fanarts. In light of this tragedy let’s pour out all the love we have for this show. I drew most of these on the back of my worksheets at school and talked my friends ear off about it 🥹

I’ll always remember the friends I’ve made online through this, whether we still talk or not, you were an incredibly formative part of my teens and I am so, so grateful for that ❄️
