Founding Patron & Benefactor Circle

The Founding Patron & Benefactor Circle is intended for individuals, families, organizations, and institutions who wish to play a meaningful role in supporting the continued development of my creative practice and larger bodies of work.

While many patrons choose to support through monthly or annual contributions, benefactor relationships often take a more customized form.

Support may include:

• Significant financial contributions

• Sponsorship of exhibitions, publications, podcasts, educational programs, or special projects

• Funding for travel, research, and cultural exploration

• Support for artist residencies

• Access to creative spaces, studios, retreat environments, or land-based projects

• Live/work opportunities

• Long-term housing opportunities aligned with creative development

• Hosting opportunities during travel or guest residencies

• Professional expertise, mentorship, introductions, or strategic support

• In-kind contributions that further the work

The goal of patronage is not ownership or influence, but the creation of conditions that allow meaningful work to exist and evolve.

Patronage supports artistic freedom, experimentation, research, travel, education, writing, tattooing, artmaking, and future projects that may not yet have a defined form.

Current areas of focus include:

• Somatic Tattoo™ development

• Writing and long-form creative projects

• Night Letters Podcast

• Fine art and exhibition work

• Artist residencies and cultural research

• Educational offerings and mentorship

• International travel and creative exchange

• Long-term projects that deepen the relationship between art, identity, place, and transformation

If you are interested in discussing a customized patronage relationship, project sponsorship, residency opportunity, housing arrangement, travel support, creative partnership, or other form of support, I welcome the conversation.

Together we help create the conditions for meaningful work to continue.
