Joy Jen Patreon

 

I’d love you to come and join in our arty fun on Patreon!

What is Patreon??

It’s a content subscription service, so in short, you pay a small monthly subscription fee (from just £3 a month) to join a small, private, online community that receives access to lots of exclusive behind-the-scenes Joy Jen Studio content.

Who’s it for??

Anyone who’s interested in art!

This Patreon is a really safe, welcoming place for you to explore your own art practice through learning a bit about mine. All ages, genders and stages of experience more than welcome.

There are three tiers to choose from when subscribing.

Here’s a brief rundown of the pricing and what’s included in each tier…

 
 

Want to gift a Joy Jen Patreon membership to someone? Or put it on your own wish-list?

No problem! You can gift up to one year of membership of any tier using the link below.

 

Want to know even more about what’s included in each tier?

 

Included in the Supporter Tier:

In this tier, I share a couple of fun treats each month:

A monthly phone wallpaper download featuring my artwork, plus access to all past phone wallpapers…

And a 15% discount code for the Joy Jen Studio shop, and Etsy shop.

I also share a monthly Behind The Scenes Blog Post, all about what I’ve been up to over the last month of running my creative business.

PLUS you’ll get access to the #JanuaryDailyArt 2023 and 2024 prompts too! Two 31 day series of reference images for you to work through and create from at your leisure.

And you’ll also get access to the #JulyDrawOutside24 prompts - a 31 day series of prompts to get you outdoors and creating, with lots of tips along the way to help you feel comfortable & excited to give it a go

 

Included in the Inspiration Tier:

In this tier, I share 3-4 reference images each week for you to draw or paint from. Each week the images are based around a different theme, to inspire you in your own creative practice and help with the endless problem of what to draw next! You’ll have access to all the past reference images I’ve shared too.

 
 

You'll be welcome to share any of your work from the reference images or other challenges on my Patreon on Instagram using the #joyjenpatreon hashtag.

I also share a time-lapse video each month, with a voiceover, of the creation process of my own artwork from one of the month’s reference images. In the voiceover I talk about the materials and techniques I use for each layer of my drawing, so you can see more of my own creative process. You’ll have access to all the past time-lapse videos I’ve shared too! Here’s what’s available so far:
