Patreon Why Not
This is a quick video in response to a series of questions I get and hopefully the video will help answer those questions.
I receive a lot of messages on social media and emails asking me why I don't set up a Patreon account, allowing people an easy way to support the channel. The very fact I receive such emails is so incredibly humbling to me, the fact that people want to help support the channel is just amazing. In this video I explain everything and of course thank all you wonderful people for your unbelievable generosity, warm heartedness, genuine concern for my health and unshakable support. I love doing these reviews but I especially love the opportunity they provide for me and that is connecting with each and everyone of you. I am unable to enjoy a social life in the conventional sense, however, you guys, more than make up for this a million times over. Thank you all so much for making The Art Gear Guide what it has become and growing to be, without you guys, this would all be nothing.

Donations
I am not comfortable adding this to my site or YouTube channel. I receive many emails and messages asking me how people can help support The Art Gear Guide, mainly I think due to the fact that I purchase all of the supplies myself, except those sent directly from companies kind enough to do so. I have decided to add a donations button to my site, however, I feel the best way to add such a campaign is as follows, all donations made will be used to purchase art products for review, however, all products purchased using donated funds, after they have been reviewed, will be used as giveaways to subscribers of the YouTube Channel, the web site or any of the above social media platforms. This way I personally will not benefit from financial donations. I have set this channel and site up for my own enjoyment and not profitable gain. I feel with this support method, everyone wins but not in a financial.

My Own Personal Art
I would not exactly call myself an artist in the true sense of the word, however I absolutely love art as it has helped me immensely dealing with clinical depression due to my battle with constant chronic pain and disability. Follow the link to check out my own projects http://bit.ly/2qAa7BN
Thank You
Finally, thank you so much for all of your support, without all of you, this channel and The Art Gear Guide would simply not be the same.
Thank you so much.
